I picked this up at Pet Supplies Plus for $5. I was wondering if it was a flowerhorn, and if I got a good deal? he/she is 3 inches long.

Thanks in advance!!

I thought it was, and I told me fiance so, But I told him not to say anything so that they wouldn't try to label it as the other tank which was $8.

Did I get a good deal on it?
 
*takes on an Hannibal Lecter tone* Why yes, Clarice....I mean, um, Davey..... ^_~

Not really though, I had been wanting something with a similar evilness to my pink con (firmly convinced he's not a hybrid as I saw pink cons today that looked so close!!). I've been thinking of Malawis, looked at the fish store where we picked up our new RBP, and didn't see any I liked.

When we went over to the pet store for crix for the tarantula, I looked at their fish, and lo and behold about 5-6 FH in their tanks!! I was super-excited, since I'd never seen one up close before (pics are as good as I'd gotten) I think this is probly the only FH I'm getting. I really want Malawis.

I did get one better pic of Freckles, and I'm waiting for it to upload so I can post it here. ^^

Ooh lookie, it's done ^^

my camera's screwed up right now....my cat tried running off with my camera one too many times... >.<

We have named him/her Freckles. Can they be sexed at this size?
 
If it would friggen hold still long enough!! >.< lol

It's head looks pretty flat right now. Right now, it's chasing my pink con....
