Changing up my fish tanks and going to be dedicating all 6 tanks to Flowerhorn's and Arowana's. Here is my first flowerhorn bough from my local fish store for 9 bucks ... what do you think?

Nice flowerhorn, full row of stars broken up, it seems to have a lot of red aswell, it will continue to brighten up. Looks like a male to me as far as the hump showing, but it seems to be quite small aswell which is good. As far as your specimens name, I have no Idea there are so many ridiculous names people come up with. But for 9 dollars seems like a steal to me, I usually see crap flowerhorns lately for quite a bit of money around my area. Anyways seems to look very nice, good pick up.
Red dragon got my vote as well. If you look good at the dorsal you see another smaller flower line. Females tend to have these so there's a pretty good chance it's female. Nice pickup.
Any advice on what I should be feeding her. Right now I'm using small meal worms and Southern Delight's Vegitail Growth?
You should also pickup some flower horn specific foods so you can work on color. Blood worms as treats too.
great find.its nice looks like it was in the pet shop for a while and it has stumped its growth its head is way to big for its body
