i know hes a male cose i have pics of his brother. but i quess cuold be a female.... with fader flowerhorns (from what iv read) they get there kok later as they grow. and i buy all my flowerhorns here in BC (Canada). altho the big male was from thialand. then to a supplyer in the sates some place then shiped out here to me.
 
The one you are calling a fader looks like a regular zhen zhou red dragon and I don't see any signs of it fading. It also has a spot in the top dorsal which usually indicated female which is what it looks like to me.
 
Curious to the cost? I fell in love with these recently but have seen some outrages prices.

I saw a huge Flower Horn at Fish gallery in Houston, yesterday. $900 I would guess it was 14" long and FAT!.

I stopped buy my "hole in the wall" I bearly speak english (asian store owner) and he had 12 of them about 4" to 6" inches. wanted $100. I bought a peacok bass 5"x $16 dollars and a shovel nose tiger $20 @ 8", he offered $80 as a last ditch effort. Also, bought 4 albino channel cats for $1.99 x 4" for my pond.

I didn't jump cuz the wife would kill me and I don't know much about them, yet.
