My tough guy

[Greg31]

Got this guy from a member on here. He came in great shape and has only improved. Eats like a champ and has a lot of personality. I would say he is 5-6" right now. For now he is in a 29g until I set up a 90g for him. Just wondering what everything thinks of a possible ID. Pics are not wonderful because he never stops moving.

perfect harmony ... especially if the red around the throat comes in a bit more ... i'm not real sure on current flowerhorn specifics

Nice kamalau

That is what I was wondering, ya think its a KML?

Yeah it appears to be a zz x Thai silk or other pearly kamfa which = kamalau. A lot of them have been imported in the last 2 years or so but it is a stable strain and they always fill out really nice with age. Probably good chance of fertility too. His blue pearl will probably break up a little with age and he will get more red on him. Good luck with him he is nice and will only get better with size.
