A heads up to short body hybrid lovers!

Whatever buddy. Just giving my opinion on your fish, What this site is for. Im sure it was over $200, Shipping fees are expensive.

I guess your opinion on what a SB Kamfa should look like differs. This is a low-quality SB, or half Parrothorn/ killin. Its eyes, mouth, and kok look nothing like a kamfa. Just because it has some kamfa traits doesnt make it Kamfa. Well, Maybe low-grade. Again im not saying this is an ugly fish, Just over-priced.

Stunting has nothing to do with SB fish. Its just shaped oddly and the eyes are HUGE, that usually means stunted. I could get a very nice Bonsai for around $200, Much better quality. But good luck with your sell though. Advice for future: Dont buy from breeders who keep their fish in 5 gallon cubes.

BTW it looked like a $200 fish when you got it, But not so much anymore. Good job!

This particular thread was in regard to selling the fish....I don't remember asking for opinions. This fish came from a US seller so your estimate on price is a little off.

As his Kamfa traits are the predominant ones (and the fact he was sold to me that way) I chose to list him that way. As for being half parrot or killin again your talking about a huge percentage of all flowerhorns on the market today.

You did read the entire thread didn't you? He looks exactly the same (koks up a little more) as he did when I received him. Which isn't very much like the auction pic you re-posted.

Sort of dificult to find seller's that aren't raising their grow outs in a divided tank in a space roughly the size of a shoebox.

All in all your post was one of the most professional thread derailments I've seen in a while. You post in a thread that I started in regard to selling a fish...you then proceed to give an unsolicited litany of reasons this fish isn't worth the money I'm asking...did you really think I'd be overjoyed about that?

You really pissed me off with that one so I think it merits a further response.

Not only did you clearly skip the first part of this thread but you also missed the date on the thread you took this pic from. I've had him a little more than 2 weeks. Sorry dude but it would even be dificult for a noob to screw up a fish (the way your sarcastic comment insinuated) in that time period.

So heres what I wanna know...do you A. do not like me and don't want me to sell this fish? B. know the seller and want people to think they take crappy care of their fish? C. are engaged in a (failed) attempt to get me to lower the price either for yourself or a friend?

Because I cannot possibly think of any other reasons for the phrasing of either one of your posts in this thread.

Sorry mate, Im not here to stroke your ego.
Just thought the buyer should know a little more about what they are buying, thats all. Just because somebody ripped you off, doesnt mean you can rip somebody else off.
Not trying to fight, Or get the fish cheaper haha. I mean, I could go get this fish http://www.aquabid.com/cgi-bin/auction/auction.cgi?fwflowerhorn&1286442755 for probably less that what your selling.
I was just asking questions, and then you went ahead and insulted me, so yes, I hope somebody doesnt pay 200 for this fish, let alone the 250 you have it on aquabid for. Like I said, the Faders are a good deal, but seems like your just trying to put money in your pocket with this one.
Good luck with finding a good home.

The way you said that sounded a lot more like an insult than izzy_here post. Just my opinion.
It looks nice but I wouldn't pay that price.

So your here just to be rude then?

How selfless of you. I assume you only have the most altruistic motives for doing this.

Did you even see the orginal auction that I purchased? The auction I've been running for the last week? Or the auction I have listed now? The price I payed was $199 plus $59 for shipping. I'm asking $200 plus shipping. My previous asking price was $220. Not sure where you got $250 from.

So I'll make $1... after heatpack's, multiple 3 mil bags and stryofoam etc I will have lost that $1 and then some. Not sure how thats ripping some one off but thanks so much for all your input.
