How many?

Curious to see if more than one flowerhorn could inhabit the tank for the duration of its life. I have read that two flowerhorns in a tank is bad idea unless breeding and then you need to remove the female shortly after. But from searching around varius threads throughout MFK I have noticed that a few people here have tanks with 2-4 flowerhorns in them. I currently have a 90 gallon and am wondering if I could eventually add another flowerhorn or two. Not sure if this is a stupid question or not but could use some people with more flowerhorns knowledge to chime in. Thanks

It can be done you just need to make it all makes or all females or one male the rest female and it really just depends on the particular personality of that fish some are chill so u might have to buy and sell or take back until you get a group that gets along.

Thanks for the insight for the time being it'd be two males. Eventually I would like to breed them but I would put the female in another separate tank. Also I need to find a decent breeder in my area because I would like another high quality fish

I have an adult male and female FH in a 90gal tank together and they do amazing surprizingly. I guess they are just well paired. However my others I have to seperate with dividers in my 125.
