Flowerhorn body shape

[Rtc/tsn]

Is it possible to tell what kind of body shape my flowerhorn will have once he gets bigger. I really like the box shaped bodies but don’t think mine is going to get that. It don’t matter he’s still the same fish either way. He’s a zz/red dragon. If I had to guess I’d say he’s coming up on 1 year old within the next month or two

I think he will keep the body shape he has now he reminds me a lot of other vieja especially in his body shape. If I was to get another FH I would look for one with the body shape of yours as Eddie had a boxy body and it seamed to cause him problems with swimming and what not.
