VittleKing;2078141; said:actually the bro is probably right about the parrot blood in your fish. Jing Kang/Flames are faded flowerhorns, and the fading gene comes from parrots. Parrots are commonly used in creating flowerhorn, especially faders like yours. I really like the colors, but I also agree about the head. The face is long, the mouth looks kind of like an overbite, and the big lower portion looks like the fish has jowls allmost. If the kok would grow it may make the face shorter and fit the body more, but I doubt the kok will grow much more. It looks like hard kok, and not much size to it. It may get a lil bigger but don't think it will bro.

Why you got a nice camera?Skivs;2117270; said:Great looking fish there beany...I'll bring my camera come Feb...Maybe we can get some pics that'll do him justice.
Yeah I'm not sure why all the wierd head/face posts... I just don't see it. They have seen and owned more FH then me so I'm sure there right. Maybe it does have a long face or jowls? lol. WTF is jowls? I dig him and thats really all that matters right?nycom2011;2117355; said:You know what !! your flowerhorn is really lovely because its unique ..not a typical look of ZZ or watever..in its own right i would give it like 8.9 and that is only because of kok ..however cant really think of why anyone would post negative comments on it..again there are the few that love MP first prize specimens in some contest and would rate it relative to that..heheh
I want another...bluestarflowerfish;2086359; said:looking awesome!!!
Don't worry about offending me bruda. I'm down with whatever anyone has to say... Everyone has there own opinion. I was not aware that parrots had anything to do with my fish so my apologies for the comment before... I really do need to get some dslr pics of him to prove how bad my camera sux...Camphilophus;2106199; said:thank you.
it would be nice but SRT's are really expensive for nice ones and I'm not sure if they are even fertile. If you've got the money then do it. Otherwise a carpinte would be nice.
Didn't mean to offend you, the mouth just doesn't seem right, its a hybrid after all so its not like theres a real species you can compare it to anyways.
