can i keep a fh and a pbass in a 20g for a grow out?
 
maybe when they are both very very small. but even then it wouldnt last more than a few weeks. So a long winded no
 
Ok then I will wait till I have a free tank then getting a 100 gallon soon for my Pbass how long will a flowerhorn last in a 20 ?

That depends on water quality and diet. Mine ballooned from 1" to now 5.5" in 4 months. But she's been in a large tank, 50-75% weekly water changes and a very good diet. So maybe 1-3months?

I have both fh an pbass an you just cant mix them the fh would destroy the bass even if the bass is way bigger,

Agreed. Keep the flowerhorn solo, had mine in a 20 with a small fire eel. But it bothered my eel so i set it up solo in a 30gal im looking too add more flowerhorns with him/her once i can officially sex it.
 
20150904_120519.jpg 20150904_120518.jpg Im new to flowerhorns but id say that it might only work for a few days to maybe a week. As i said im new to flowerhorns and i decided to make a tank. i bought a 450litre tank and found this flowerhorn at the same shop(current size 7-9 cm). Can you tell me if this flowerhorn is a good grade or a low grade flowerhorn and if i decide to buy it can i put an electric blue jack dempsey of similiar size with the flowerhorn.

thanks
