Help. I caught the flowerhorn bug. I ended up with a extra flowerhorn, I couldn't decide at store so just grabbed them both. Having them in a 60 split 3 ways makes me feel bad. While my new 80 gal cycles. I'm trying to decide which to keep. Which would you keep Regular body vs. short body?

The sb has better colors, but I'm not a fan of sb fish. I'd keep the fish on the left, and try hard to get him to color up.

Left. It looks like a good fh. Now only if you could get that hump a tad bit bigger and more red than a bright apple.
 
In regards to the short body, is there a tendency towards tail drop as it grows older. I'm leaning towards him, but my web browsing brought up a lot of photos of rd with tail drop. Any input appreciated.

Lol. Yeah it's been a tough decision . I guess I'll hold onto both of them to see who pops more within the next few weeks.

Excuse the crappy phone pics, the reg body Rd keeps moving.
