How to pump your flowerhorn for competition

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
This is some very good info -- IF one is actually pumping their fish up for a competition. Raise your right hand if you're REALLY planning that for your FH?

Otherwise, as the OP himself alludes to at different places, the processes described also have potential side effects that if continued for prolonged times could actually cause health issues or decrease the life span of your FH. Ask yourselves the question of why so many FH owners have health problems with their FH only living a couple of years? Because they try to get too much too fast out of their fish!

So while not taking away kudos for OP's sharing info (which is why we're all here), if you're not planning to enter your fish in any competitions (like 99.99% of us here), I personally feel a more natural and less hardcore regimen will make a beautiful and happier (that's important too, ain't it?:) Flowerhorn.
 
Can you explain further on the insomnia detail? My fish started acting strange and hates light now and I think it might be because I left it on too long? I'm really not sure.
 
This was on old info but some of it are still effective. I used some of it and modify some, kens product I think was obsolete coz theres a lot better ones. Its not for everybody but for people who compete, im pretty sure that regimen was straight on.
