Wow. Thats one of the ugliest fh I have ever seen. In fact I think it's the only ugly fh I've ever seen. All that and for the low low price of just under 200$. My guess is that the lfs will be holding onto that one for a while.
 
those are bonsi parrots...not flowerhorns!!!! dont buy them!... wait and keep shopping around.... get a nice pair shipped to you as fry for the same price or less...

its a flower parrot.. and the lowest quality one that ive ever seen..
it should have been culled..
everything should have a chance in life first.
 
true.. but something as deformed as that? its cruel to let it live.. and if someone buys it and it breeds? then theres a heap more Deformed fish that people could end up un-knowingly buying.. then if the person realises they have a deformed fish when it gets bigger ? possibly dump it in a waterway?
then it crosses with the inhabbitants of that waterway?
you end up with a population of deformed fish..

theres a lot of reasons fish like this shouldnt be sold..

I do not think that fish has much to offer , buy from members from this fine forum or other FH boards one being flowerhorncraze.com

Culling those help , is done in many different breedings practices around the globe. That is no Bonzai , That is just some real low low grade FH
