Yer I know kok is based on genes, but as i don't know her genes I wanted to know if it is possible to grow the kok after fish has reached 8 inches assuming it has the the right genes,,,, and also what type of flowerhorn grow the large kok
A Flowerhorn has the kok gene or it doesn't it can vary for each fry produced and a female will not usually have a kok like a male.
There is hard kok, normal kok, and water kok. I have had all with multiple fish and my water kok Flowerhorn explode only with aggression or breeding and usually normal looking without it.
At 8l" for a female the kok has little room in it to grow
She is about 9 inches, if I was to try and breed them would I have problems because the female should be half the size of the male shouldn't it
