Got a lot of stuff going on in a 14 different tanks but I've got a 115gallon I'm waiting for something to pair up in. Once a pair forms, I'll move the pair to their own tank. Heres what I've got.

5.5" lyonsi (thinking of removing, its been picking on my best FH)

4.5" flowerhorn (had to remove earlier due to lyonsi)

2x 3" vieja synspilum (have 2 of these also, not sure if they are purebreds)

what do you guys think? I'm thinking about removing the lyonsi so I can put my nice FH back in there. Haven't had any aggression problems other than the lyonsi. Any potential on the small flowerhorn? I picked him out of a tank of 30 or so because he was a lot bigger than the rest of his tank mates but he doesn't have much of a flowerline :(

thought of using lyonsi myself but they are very nasty got to watch out as you now know:) good luck with your breedings

the only reason hes in there is because I had 4 of them. 1 of them killed my other 2, so I put the mean one in with a tank full of red devils and they killed him overnight even though I've never seen any aggression out of them before. :confused:

Now I'm left with this one and hes a mean bastard, I'd like to replace him with a cuban after seeing that cuban X flowerhorn in that other thread.

but he doesn't have much of a flowerline :(
what? he has a decent flowerline!! its even doubled in places! only down fall is not much of a nuchal, i think more shots are needed here. but he is a very nice fish, very deep red lots of pearling double flower line deep red eyes.

im also very interested in this white midas.

I was talking about the other flowerhorns lol, I am almost positive this ones a female but I had to remove her.

That little white devil is a pain to get picture of but I will try for some more next time I bust out the camera.

Heres another one of my nicer flowerhorn after her beating from the lyonsi.

I have some KKP x Syn fry if you want some for a breeding project. I'm in Ypsi. Let me know.

no thanks, know of anywhere I can find a KKP around here for a decent price? Some dude had some nice ones at the last swap meet I wish I would have picked up. :(

heres two pictures from tonight of the white devil for you mbunafishkeeper.
