Well I think the looks on a FH is important as well as the character of a FH... remember one thing, FH are INBRED A LOT... its not found in the wild...people have mixed pairs just to get better fry... the one you have looks like one of the first type of flowerhorns, with basic structure and color... never know, might have more stronger genes!
yeah i understand..but this FH is a fader, he will start changing color on a few month..he will be orange like his father..golden base flowerhorn.
Just because its father was a fader doesn't mean the fry will fade. You can't call it a fader unless its faded. It may carry the gene, but as of now, its a ZZ.
i said is a fade bacause he starting to fade..i will keep updating this fish...he is like 3"inch now..and he starting to show some colors, depends on water quality and temperature...you cant see on the picture cause the quality..i got two but i think the other one is a female...she not showing the same progress.
He's going to fade for sure probably going to look like old school jing kang which is a zz. His head looks good for his size I think he will be a great fish once faded.
