ID? maybe a hybrid?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The one with stripes is zebra pleco
 
They a def. flowerhorns. But the stripped one lookes like a flower x parrot. For some reason i think those guys look like black calvus but there obviously not.
 
Looks sort of like a Jack Dempsey mixed with a flowerhorn or something. The last picture looks just like a JD, but with a little bit different markings and the eyes. Either way looks like some awesome "Pleco's", nice steal you found!
 
great find. my best mix up ever was getting a 2inch red tail catfish for $1.79 cuz the old man who bagged it left off the last 9 (17.99) and this was at a LFS that is on the marketplace here.
 
Some pics of them all settled in... maybe now you guys can tell better

I'd say flowerhorns! And beautiful ones at that! Congrats on the great pick up!
 
Look like lil FH to me too.
 
OMG Great find! Got to love it when some one messes up the price on something LOL

They are clearly flowerhorns , not sure what strain yet ( I am still learning about flowerhorns , but I am very interested in them and hope to get one this year after I do a bit of research and decide which kind I like the best )
 
thanks everyone! i appreciate the help and compliments :)
i'll update this thread and bump it back up when they get a little bigger
