UPDATE: After I put him in the tank, he's colors started to brighten up immediately, I also think his KOK got a little bit larger, let me know what you guys think. Also what kind of KOK is his?
Thanks,
Alex

Chris now a days not all fh have tri in them but most and all classic fh do.
Mixed opinions posted about worth...
It really depends were you baught it.. At lfs a large fish like that would cost 75-125 regardless if fh or tri, it is obviously fh though.
At a store specilizing in fh you would not find that fish @ that size ever...maybe small fry that would grow into that fish...but a breeder woulda kulled that fish before it got that big.
Private seller could ask anything imo its a 40 fish just fir the size and a nice addition for you tank
The kok may swell slightly depending on mood/feeding but not to any large degree,
If i were you i would consintrate on feeding foods high in carotines, dont buy fh specialty foods (rip off). Rather go with nls or another good pellet and an astaxanthin addattive, he will really color up brightly

I realize that but I just think that if it doesn't have even smallest amount of Trimac at some point in it then it can't be considered a flowerhorn. Just like how you can't consider Rose Queen a flowerhorn and Red Shock and Red Monkeys according to Dave.
I cant dispute without facts, but i know a few malaysian importersthat would def say red monkeys and red shock are louhan, maybe not zen zou lou han as they dont have zz pearls but i guess with these hybrids opinion will differ considering the history and evolution of the fh is spread across the far east and info may be different depending on what beeeders you talk to.... But i would take any info from the origins, then apply the evolution... Fh from thia, china, viet, phillipines, are all slightly different from the breeder input to thier evolution.
As alway I these are my opinions not fact as fact surrounding the fh is cloudy
Dave? From petzone
How about thai silk....cloud history with no proof of tri ancestory yet who will disput its an fh

This will some what support the tri theory, "hybrid" and fh is open to evolution...and in this evolution chart it isnt 100% expressed that all of the fish have tri genes only that tri s were involved in the creation of one or all of the 3 originating fh, cloudyness.... We know purebred origins of these fh include combinations of the fish at the top of the chart but only all the different original breeders can truly know the combinations of them...I dont think any of these creators were named Dave lol
The family on the right "Hua Lou Han" doesnt display tri markings raising the questions i ask
PS this chart makes me drool i want them all

Stop already, not a pure tri based souly on the incertanty of pureness
This is why some hobbyists dont like us fh fans and our hybrids
Besides tri s dont have that much red covering the body,

Dave and Nate at Fengshui Aquatics over in Thailand. They sell and breed flowerhorn.

The chart doesn't really mean much at this point but here
