Flowerhorn tankmates.

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
My fh is only with one now. He found a lady he liked then proceeded to terrorize the remaining parrots. I only have him in a 60. If I had a larger tank open for him I think it would of worked out. Perhaps Lowe will chime in.bp have a very good group defense and are good at hiding in corners and such. Also they can take a pounding. I just felt bad for the others.

I like the look of the combo but it might be pushing it in my 75. Even though my flowerhorn is only 3" now. I suppose like everything with cichlids it depends on the individual fish. Anyone else have experience with this combo?
 
My FH is in a 90 with my 2 Synspillum, one of them he doesn't bother and the other one he chases and beats up on. They've been together from day one for the last 6 months. I just picked up a 55 and the FH will be in there all by himself very shortly.
 
Right now mine is with an African Featherfin Cat who is bigger than the fh. The FH doesn't seem to acknowledge his presence. I'm hoping they can live together long term. The tank does seem kind of bare right now but he's growing fast.
