Hi , I bought two flowerhorns together and one is in my 2ft tank and the other in 4 ft tank both are from same parent. But one is more darker skin and the other very bright . But both are not showing any signs of red coloration. Can anyone please tell me what kind of FH are they. And is there any chance to bring red Color in them . Thanks .

Because FHs are a hybrid of 2 species (maybe more depending on the generation),
even from the same spawn, one individual can look like one parent, one the other parent, or varying degrees of in-between. And if in the past there is another species somewhere in the lineage, those genes may be dominant in a certain individual.
