It is a Red Texas...because a Red Texas is a bit of a Flowerhorn. Especially if you bought it from Petsmart. I've noticed the RT from Petsmart have a faint flower mark on the head. Look at Mo's pic, there is a faint black mark on the head, mine is like that too.

The RT I bought from RainnyBetta in Thailand is different...but All mixed Hybrids, ie. Flowerhorns are all mixed and different.

Hmm, my uncles friend has a few females similar to this one from the same group as the male in my avatar.
