Hello, yesterday i bought a texas/flowerhorn hybrid( will get pic up as soon as possible) from a breeder in my area, the fish is 3 inches and seems to have a descent temperament, i currently have he/she in a 55 gallon with a 6 inch male convict and 2 balloon texas cichlids, the fishes body looks like a flowerhorn in shape but the colouring resembles a texas abit more, with no marking on the head and no hump. what should i expect from this fish?
 
Right now he's still pretty calm but I'm keeping a close eye on he/she, and I'll try to get a pic up soon don't have a camera at the moment

Yeah some are very calm but just remember they can snap. Anything that threatens these type of fish their instincts take in and will kill.

Like "tamed" tigers in circuses... We all know what can happen and what has happened with them.
 
100% agree with lhsnshaik I bought a common pleco to help with cleaning the algae, woke up in the morning to a dead pleco
