Generally a pearl gourami can go a week without food without threatening its life, but beyond a week it is uncertain. Feed adults once a day, and fry 2 to 3 times a day.
During growth, feed on a fixed schedule with enough nutrition; too long without food causes deficiency and harms the gourami’s development.
