I decided to save some money today, I found a fish at a lfs labelled as a blood parrot that isn't a blood parrot, looks to be a fader to me but who knows, I really liked its shape so I grabbed him, mystery grow out it is then and at £5.95 it was a steal too.

pics when I can get a decent one, letting him grow out in the 300g for a while as he is only 3 inch atm.

Yeah I know what I meant was a brother or sister to the fader. My fader looked like that before the transition.

Awesome post a pic

Here he is, hopefully he grows a nice hump, looks to be male down below!-)

Not actually sure what it is but he has blue spangles in his fins and I'm guessing is fading still, wonder what he will turn into... His mouth seems amp to me but the high dorsal and big tail are off for it to be a midevil Imo. Possibly fh x midas.
I'm a sucker for mis labeled mystery fish haha...

Nice pickup! Love it! To be honest watching flowerhorns grow up is fun.

It has tons of green pearls on her and the picture I posted of my fader this is his sister.

Look at the fading process looks beat up but it's just getting the orange in
