Hi,

I was given this as a flowerhorn but it looks nothing like my others I was wondering if i had managed to score a trimac, and if so can you tell the sex?

These pics were taken when it was just put into the tank last night, it hasnt fully coloured, but this morning there are 3 complete flowers one oh the head, one on the tail and one in the middle of the body.

It was from a guy i know, he said he got given it as an unknown fish, and he told me he thought it was a low quality flowerhorn.

but like i said it looks nothing like my othr flowers, in body and fin shape and has the colouring of a tri.

It does look like a trimac. But to be responsible for breeding purposes I would say its a flowerhorn.

why would you do that? (not that im planning on breeding, i only keep males)

Alsoi just looked on wikipedia, and it describes what i have to the letter, a 3 spotted green/yellow fish with a pink band...
 
I'd say flowerhorn. I haven't seen any trimacs with out the spots.
