Yes. Since it's a hybrid, it's a flowerhorn. Thanks too!

Thanks! He's a bit chubby.

I got a pm about his diet just now, I'll answer the question right here:
hbh large floaters and medium sinking gold are his staple. Earthworms, massivore, crickets, and some of my stock irked are his supplement. He used to eat tilapia and shrimp, but stopped maybe 6 months ago? Don't know why.

Wow suprised no special FH food in the mix.. Can you do a quick rundown of his tankmates?

I don't believe in fh food. Forgot to say....omega one large floaters are part of his staple.
Bunch of cichlids (festae, managuense, gt, motaguense, dovii, etc)
poly's
black aro
tinfoils (altus)
I'll get a more detailed list later, a lot of tanks and a lot of stock. Most of his tankmates are just growouts for different tanks.
