The Flowerhorn should be the main fish anyway............An O with a Flowerhorn just makes the FH even lower grade:(


what? how can an O lower the grade of an already low grade fh?
 
Flowerhorn will one day kill oscar in that size tank
 
Had same type Flowerhorn in 135gal.Killed 2 oscars twice its size

yea exactly!!! because when he starts getting aggressive im just gonna sit back and watch him kill eveything!!!

Flaming you? I've seen no personal remarks made against you. These are just the cold hard facts. All the fish except the firemouth are not appropriate for that size of tank. A Flowerhorn is typically a big, mean, glass banging, killer of a fish that will snap in the next few months. (based on current size)

Don't be so sensitive. When I post my pics around here, I'm prepared to take all the comments whether they're in my favor or negative. It's good to let other people see your setup and get a different perspective sometimes. You just stated, "the tank is overstocked, i know, this is obvious.", so why are you now getting ruffled up over other people saying too when it's so obvious? You're the one who posted your overstocked, incompatible tank. :screwy:
 
Goes Psycho and kills the flowerhorn and throws the oscars out of the top of the tank!

:ROFL:

Suggestion: (No Flameing):
Get a 90 Min for the FHorn alone.
Move the O's to the LFS.
Get something small to go with the FMouth in the 50.


Good Luck-

thank you!! this is what im looking for, i know that a 50 is not big enough for even a single O or fh, what would be good with the fm in a 50? maybe more fm's?

i was getting ruffled up at the fact that after the first couple people told me its overstocked, 8 other people had to crowd the thread with the exact same info,
 
for one, you just posted pics, which usually means it shouldnt even be in this section. should be in the photo section.

2ndly, you didnt ask for any suggestions or say anything at all.

now as for suggestions... get a 75g+ tank for the FH if ya want to keep it or get a 150g+ if ya want to keep all 3. For the 50, either get more FM or some other smaller fish.

whoa!!!! want flamin ya.. just sayin... i mean when we see somthin like that of corse all those fish are gonna reach at least 10" and in a tank like that it just wont work... some people get misinformed by a place like petsmart or somthin like that and its a first reaction when a MFK member sees a stocking such as yours to comment on it... it is just freindly advice, at least on my part. so being that you know its overstocked do yo have a plan for the future? is it gonna be a survival of the fittest or do you have a monster tank in mind?oh and, i think the O lowering the FH grade would just be like torn fins or stress not letting it get to its full potiential. but im no expert on FH so dont quote me on that
