is there such a thing as an american/african hybrid?

Because i already know what a flowerhorn is. And its african parentage is not "widely claimed".

i just thought it was quite interesting what some dude told this newspaper on what makes a FH.

well I decided to read it, pure nonsense

It’s supposedly the result of crossbreeding the African cichlid with the Giant Gourami, locally known as the “kalui”.

I got a rabbit and a moose to mate, I called it a flowerhorn too... how weird...

I got a couple fish working on it


Sorry about the water spots...too late at night to clean the glass.

it seems really unlikely, but really cool, too, if there is such a thing.

Logically impossible depending on which species you are talking about. Most species are of different genus thus rendering crossbreeding between them impossible.
