Bearing in mind that this Gourami has only just been introduced to the aquarium, so will not be settled and likely to be stressed out
This is a thread from 2018, similar looking colouration Gourami with very similar oddity around the head area....
@Colin_T and others responded to it
Any help would be appreciated. I've taken over a 110 gallon tank that was in very poor condition. I brought it up to spec amd gradually started introducing fish. I got 9 dwarf gourami in good health and spirit. After they had settled I did a 20% water change due to a fluctuation in water...

Could this just be a very stressed out and totally unsettled Gourami that needs to have some peace, quiet and lights out to get itself back together?
This fish has only been in the aquarium for a couple of days, it can take weeks for a fish to settle and colour up fully....all the water changes etc are just exacerbating the stress levels surely?
