I just got this titanium silk flowerhorn from my LFS, I was wondering if he/she is a male or not. He/she is about 3 inches and was bigger compared to other Flowerhorns. Please let me kno if you have anything to say. Thank you!1366504136650513665061366507
 
Bigger than all the other siblings could mean male, although that’s not a for sure way to tell gender. Do you have a picture of the vent?
 
His/her vent in a little bigger than a males and is the color white. Can’t get good photo of the vent
 
I’d learn towards male. I’d assume your going to keep him/her either way so why not just wait and see. Give it a month or two of growth and you will know for sure.

Everything that you’ve told and based on pictures, points towards male. But only way to be 100% is the vent. But 3 inches is too small. But flowerhorns grow fairly quickly, so you’ll find out soon...ish.
