Pearl or Thick-Lipped Gourami?

Yeah the lower one on the left definitely looks to have a red chin!

Then male pearl has became a bit food-aggressive, particularly with the courgette I've got in there just now it's a little concerning. Hate when something picks on my corys it's usually a sackable offence.

They are very calm fish. No problem

It's calmed down now, really did NOT want to share the veg though, may have to put two bits at opposite sides of the tank in future.

Looking great! I did love my pearls! One day I’ll have them again.

I think you might have two males there. That dorsal fin looks very suspicious and not quite short and round enough for a female. I could be wrong but I think it’s a subordinate male.

Will keep an eye on them, as long as they're getting along I'm happy either way.

Not sure what I've got going on with these 2 pearls, they hang around each other while foraging around, but the more colourful one has a dart at the other now & then but it's not constant, not sure if it is actually 2 males or some sort of breeding aggression.
I'm reluctant to separate them but starting to think it might be best.

Can you get up-to-date pics just to check?
