Description

The Short Body Red Tail Gourami is a captive-bred “short body” or “balloon” variant of the Red Tail Giant Gourami (Osphronemus laticlavius). This variety is characterized by a genetically stunted or compressed torso, giving it a much rounder, stout appearance compared to the sleek, oval shape of the standard wild-type fish.

短體紅尾鬥魚是人工繁殖的紅尾巨型鬥魚（Osphronemus laticlavius）的「短體」或「氣球」變種。此變種的特徵是基因導致的軀幹發育不良或壓縮，使其體型比標準野生型魚類的流線型橢圓形體型更圓潤粗壯。
