Baby Flowerhorn Opinions

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It's really a shame how people like you can't handle some adult discourse and debate without insulting others and then acting all hurt and saint-like. If you'd rather not spend your time doing this why do you keep replying with little instigations that beg replies? And if you can't handle the replies just drop it for goodness sake.
 
Will do, and hope you'll kindly extend me the same courtesy, Thx.

Getting back to your FH Ash_water Ash_water I would have to say I agree with Ruturaj Ruturaj that he does look on the stressed side -- do you have plans to move him to a bigger tank? My reckoning/experience is that soon after doing that you will see much faster development in size, coloration and kok size as well.

Yes yes surely. My target was to get him/her to a 50 gallon minimum as soon as he/she hits 4 inches.
So soon will get the tank. Probably within this month.
Also added vent pics. Plz tell me whether male or female for sure :D

Thank you all for great feedback and all the tips. Much appreciated.
These are vent pics. Now is this male or female? Size is more or less 4 inches 90D7F5E5-AC96-4BAE-8D14-23C012BB40DC.jpeg

My replys are in what I've already posted. I'd rather not spend my life doing this with the likes of you. Simple as that. Didn't see much reply from yourself about why the body shape is such a thing for you but nevermind, I'm not here to ridicule yourself or any other user
Thank you for the tips. I have attached vent pics. Now tell me for sure :D
 
I was just gogint through the whole thread again




If you kept that fish in that much space from 3 inches to 3.8-4 inches now then the space is for sure affecting his growth. You need to give him more space. Also if those black lines always show then you need to find out why he is stressed.

I would be more concerned about the health than gender.
He or she will get a 50 gallon within Jan :)

That's great to hear about upsizing, he'll love it. Insofar as the venting I'm not sure, it's really not my area and await others to chime in. In fact I've never vented any of my 4 Flowerhorns over the years, didn't really need to, I knew or strongly suspected they were males when I bought them and they all turned out to be males. I strongly suspect the same of your FH but am happy to be proven wrong (though agreed the pix could be clearer).
