What type of fish is this?
Found it on a video on instagram. In the video a girl is "roaring" at the fish tank and it appears that this odd white fish is roaring back at her. mimicking her almost. any help???? its living in a fishtank btw. dont know much about fish, but this really amused me.

It is a true goramy, a giant distant relative of a Siamese fighting fish or Betta.They can grow to over two feet long and should have a 180 gallon tank or larger per specimen. It is difficult to find two that will live together and any other kind of fish is attacked and killed if they can. The "roaring" is an attempt to bite the girl through the glass. If you put any part of yourself in the tank with this fish a large one can inflict a bite as serious as a dog bite. They are the junk yard dog of the aquarium world you could say, but when treated right, they become good pets that interact well with their owners.
