EDITORS COMMENTS
Love is in the water! These two Kissing gourami are taking their friendship to a whole new level with some serious lip-locking action. With characteristic mouth-to-mouth pushing, these males are challenging each other for the title of ultimate smoocher. But watch out, fellas! While the kissing itself may not be fatal, all this constant bullying can really stress out their tank mates. It's like living in a never-ending high school drama! In this digitally manipulated photo print, captured by Mary Evans Picture Library, these fish show us that even underwater creatures know how to express affection. They're proving that love knows no boundaries - not even those of an aquarium. With Valentine's Day just around the corner, these Kissing gourami remind us that love is always in season. So why limit yourself to chocolates and flowers when you can have fishy kisses too? Just make sure your tank has plenty of space for everyone to swim freely without any fin-on-fin combat. So let's raise our glasses (or should we say tanks?) to these aquatic best friends who are breaking stereotypes and spreading love one kiss at a time!
