Flowerhorn Grade

[Khaled FKIRIEN]

Hi people,
I’m new hoppy into FH world. I like flowerhorn and other Cichlids.
Yesterday I got a new flowerhorn female of 12cm from local store.
Would you please give me your feedback on her grade?
One friend of mine siad it isn’t that high even though medium grade.

Your comments are very appreciated on my post.

Looks fairly low grade to me Not much into flowerhorns so don’t quote me on that. It’s a beautiful fish though

Thanks Mista for comments.
It’s bad luck that I got my first flowerhorn in this grade.
I have male flowerhorn as in the picture.
You think it won’t be worth to breeding them?

OP you should just love it for what it is, no point in having people critique your wet pet. Unless ordered online from some fancy fh place for a million dollars, they are just common rd or kamfa generally. But they are fun, pretty hybrids none the less

Give it a shot. They are both pretty pearly. Would mostlikely make some nice looking growouts

You are right Mattison, they are pets that we should respect them as they are.
I’m quite confident I could have them as nice family.

I would definitely breed them. The whole breeding and growing of fry is a fun process especially with flowerhorns. Plus they’re still beautiful fish

Thanks a lot Mastac,
You gave me a positive response to go forward for breeding.

If that first pic is the female she is koky and that's very sought after if she's fertile.. not super high grade in pearling or crosshead pearl but the kok on her looks promising.

Thanks Aria for your comment.
You are right her kok is incredible. See pic of her after three weeks. She’s doing well.
I’d love to breed her very soon.
