i have my new flowerhorn in 10gals, could you id the color of it?

i know that its need more big tank as much as 30 to 50 gals, but i dont have enough money to buy a big one, i really like flowerhorn thats why i still keep it even not qualified to my aquarium, when its get bigger maybe i can get budget that time to buy a big tank or else i sell this one and buy a new one till a got a big tank... it is surely that he can live in a 10gals

is this FH can be a good color?

here's it

Bro, are you sure it is female? Because if its female i wont bother to raise it, i will sell it immediately, coz i like malf fh, as i re-search in this site, male is much attractive look than female...

Here i give more pics just to be sure your judging, i will depend to your judging coz i dont know anything about sexing of fish or fh..

thank you
 
looks like a female to me...

be careful with a 10g, you might stunt its growth.
 
Thank you midas bro, anyway how bigger and larger the female could be? Is she raise up to 10 inches? Coz 10gals is have a 20x10...
 
I'm saying female based on the body shape & black dot on its dorsal fin (not accurate but 70% of the time, it's true)
Try venting the fish, take it out, check its vent(between the anus & anal fin).. If the shape resemble the letter "U" then its female, but if the vent looks like the letter "V" then you have a male fh..

You can keep it in the 10g for few months but not advisable + you need to do a lot of water changes unless you have a heavy filtration in it..
 
@H-][-H, I cant to that, i dont know how a good handle for venting that my fish wont get sick when i put it back to the aquarium, but btw it just a 2 months and half, i have a short video of it hope you can id it from here, so i dont need to venting it..:)
