that is a flowerhorn with a cut tail hahaha thats ridiclous looks female to me but im not sure
 
Ahahahahahahahahahahaha! WOW! That is the first time I've seen they try to turn a FH into a heart shape FH!...Might as well call it a heart horn! Ahahahahahahahaha.
But overall, no I would not recommend you to put FH together unless your trying to breed them. Breeding them depends on the FH itself, sometimes they breed like convicts. Sometimes its to the point where you want to quit because they are about to die for you trying to breed them. And from the look of this, I'd go with a male. Picture of the head will help a lot also as far as determining its sex.
 
Fish is hideous. sorry man. Another flowerhorn would rip this thing a new one. Probably do best in a community setting due to is physical handicaps. I cant imagine this fish could cause too much damage to anything.
 
I thought there were FHs that had no tails like the Heart Shaped Blood Parrots, or am I misinformed.

I like your FH btw, looks weird, but unique lol. I wouldn't keep it with another FH though..
 
No, I would not house it with another FH.
