Best Answer

The Kissing gourami (Helostoma temminckii) is of a completely different species from the Opaline gourami (Trichogaster trichopterus). They are totally unrelated. The Opaline is the same species as the 'Three spot, Blue, Gold, Platinum they are all colour sports and these can be bred together. However the cross you have mentioned can not happen. The name Gourami is a name that has commonly been applied to many fish of many unrelated species and in general means a fish that has a labyrinthine system for breathing.
