as i am having a good look at the remaining fish at the community tank,
i noticed one of the bully had some good markings... i am not sure but
i believe i've got a flowerhorn too????? can anybody confirm if it is
indeed a flowerhorn??? i just got it together with those unknown small
cichlid....

That looks like a flowerhorn to me, that thing is going to be beautiful when its fully grown



These are flowerhorns, and they look the same as the one u have!

at first i look i thought it was a jd or something but i did some reaserch and it does look like a flower horn

just want to make an update: i do have a flowerhorn....
and only few fishes are left in he community tank...what else can i ask.....

only four fishes are left: the red tail shark; the red zebra, one unknown
and this flowerhorn.... i am not sure who among them will gonna survive?
i will not add anymore fish for now as against to the wish of the wifey
otherwise they will end up all dead with this hostile specie LOL

5 months from the time i discovered that i have a flowerhorn...
look at her now..... from a mere 1/2 inch feeder to a 4 inches beauty FH...
and she had undergone a lot of bullying...

quality colours mate...will be a stunning fish full grown

thanks Ryan... i just want it to have the hump like FJ's fh...
