My Flowerhorn PIC:

[tomka123]

I'm trying to learn more about the flowerhorn strains... Is mine Kamfa? Red Dragon? I was on aquabid and saw some that looked very similar to him. Also, his cheeks, breast, and cock are all starting to swell. Should I move him to a bigger tank than the 20 long he is in & what should I add to his diet? He gets frozen krill, freeze dried krill, hikari gold, some cichlid flakes, and blood worms at times.

Thanks for the reply. I've got some peacock bass moving from my 75 to a 300, and other smaller bass from a 55 into the75, so he can go into the 55!

Great transformation, he is looking really great. How much do you feed each day?

Thanks-Only once a day... mix of pellets, krill, & bloodworms. I'm a peacock bass guy but this fish just makes me really like him!

Nice improvement, he's getting bulky and starts looking a way better.

Thanks all you guys! I'll keep posting updates... Amazing what more water changes, more attention, & varied diet will do! In the mean time, do any of you have any suggestions that would bring his colors out more? I know once I move him to a bigger tank his head & body are gonna explode even more!
