i missed keeping flowerhorns, i wonder if i can grow an 1 in fh out with other aggressive cichlid from 1-2 inches in a 75g.
 
i always wondered that
 
flowerhorns will dominate the tank whenn it grows up,i suggest oscars,green terrors,Frontosa,arowana,red devil,monos,barramundi,silver dollar i had one of them before i mean i still have it now

you meant the flowerhorn can be kept with oscars,green terrors,Frontosa,arowana,red devil,monos,barramundi,silver dollar together? well i know it can be kept with arowanas for sure.
 
in a 75 they'll most likely claim the entire tank. I've had it work in the past, but it was in a 265.
 
I wouldn't try that. 1 full grown FH in a 75G would be good. any other tankmates, add another 50G to it and you're looking at a 125G for 2 fishes to be somewhat happy.

DON"T DO IT!!
 
erm u could but just keep a close eye.
iv got a female that is in a community tank and wouldnt hurt a fly and shes 8".
i had a male who at 3" killed my whole tank including a 2ft plec.

so i think its possible BUT keep a spare tank ready.
