Dear Friends
I want to order an effective and quality red colourant food for my flowerhorn. According to my prior review most popular colourant food brands are OKIKO Platinum, OKIKO Quick Red and XO Ever Red ( also for dots and pearls development XO starry ).
But I do not know which item is really effective. For that reason I kindly ask you to share your experiences about these brands and also your opinions. What food brands may you recommend for red colouration of flowerhorn fish.
Besides this I also need your general evaluations for my little crazy boy. First photo is before one day I have bought him. The second photo is after 35 days . I am not sure about his subtype. What is his subtype ?
Thanks a lot for your concerning and informing. I wish you healthy hobby

Kind regards

Looks like a ZZ male. I have heard good things about grand sumo red for coloration, but Ive never used it.

I've had good results in the past with Xo ever red & O.S.I Spirulina pellets, among Krill & a variety of live crickets, earth works & minos, although alot of other factors apply like frequent water changes,, etc g/l with him keep us posted'

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't that a King Kamfa?

I am not sure about his subtype. It looks like a litle Red Dragon or SRD. Also some friends said , it looks also like kamfa ( because of his intensive dots, pearls). But as mentioned I do not know.

Yeah, to me it looks more like a KK. Google picture king kamfa. It's either red dragon X kamfa or red dragon X Texas imo.
 
The red eyes indicate heavy zz red dragon in it, even srd. It is very Pearly can be crossed with king kamfa. I always fed variety of food like hikari gold and sumo red with blood worms and dried krill
My red kamfa enjoyed sumo red a lot (red dragonxkkp) and his red was pretty intense
