Dont flame me, flowerhorn

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
we know there an "actual" fish, they just have no real existance. there just hybrids that looked cool so everyone caught on. mainly by asian people. we can't go fishing and catch any. there a real fish of course, but not a solid breed.
 
i'd personaly would get a group of juvis of a nice selection from Aquabid. then throw them all in the 75, wait for a pair. then remove and sell others :D

those adults you looking to buy, are huge. and "might" be less likely to pair up, in a confined space.

well gl milk, just my 2cents. :cheers:

I bet you can go fishing in Florida and catch Flowerhorn. Then you can say: "I got some wild caught, tank raised Flowerhorns!"

They are just not a wild fish strain. They are cross between different old world cichlids, primarily trimac.
Umm... I think you mean new world cichlids.

Well I don't think my FH is all that special, but he/she sure was cheap. I think I paid $4.99 for this little guy.
