Tell me what you guys think of my little collection. Which is your favorite? I personally can't choose though the Bonsai Thai Silk's ugliness and don't say die attitude is some how endearing him to me faster than the others, though they've all got their positives in my eyes. The KML is an avid flasher/flicker and glutton. The Red Mammon is inquisitive and his Orange/Red is darker than anything I've seen in a while outside of Africans reminds me of old school Red Devil pics when some Red Devils actually got close to being red. The Blood Parrots just got an amazing amount of girth and bulk to him.

that short body flowerhorn looks like a krillen parrot if you ask me. Just cause of the body shape and also the head shape especially. But I could also be wrong :P

that red mammon though.......holy WOAH that thing is red. Somehow, makes me think of what a scarlet badis would be like if it was actually a fish that you could see without a magnifying glass lol
 
Nice collection and pictures. Do you keep them all together? I see you keep one with a datnoid.

Unfortunately that SB Flowerhorn isn't a Killin, which interestingly enough is what I ordered and wanted. The mouth on him is normal it's just like the Bonsai Thai's. If it was a Killin Parrot the body and mouth would be exactly like a Blood Parrot's with Flowerhorn coloration.

Thanks for the compliment though bro, I do love the color on the Red Mammon hope it doesn't fade as he matures. Gonna have to look up that scarlet badis you mentioned as you've peaked my interest. Working on the video as we speak so if your interested in my set up stay tuned!

Yeah for the moment hopefully they'll stay peaceful enough to comm long term. I plan on upgrading in the near future to give them more room and may change some of my stock. I've got a Indo Tiger/Dat and American Tiger/Dat, Blue Gorillus Umbee, and Paranettroplus Synspila in there that I might be rehoming soon 16 inches and up is just too big for the tank I'm planning. Thanx for the compliment and comment bro!

Here's the video and I apologize for how dark and surprisingly bad the picture came out despite it being a "1080 HD" video. I tried editing it on youtube by selecting the default fix it in edit mode to no real avail. There are several videos on my channel of these guys so please feel free to check them out so you can see the differences in the videos. I didn't edit any of the recent videos but some of the older videos with my Armatus and Curupira eating rat pup's where edited slightly in an attempt to better the quality of the video's. So please feel free to browse around and see some of the fish I've kept and subscribe, comment or like my video. Thanks guys hope you enjoy.

Awesome collection!!!!
Thanks bro, appreciate it! I've been thinking about adding some more hybrids in the near future to another tank I've got running with the Blood Parrot.

nice.... i like your thai silk and killin parrot...
Thanks man, the Bonsai Thai Silk is one of my faves right now. It's one of those weird things when something is so funny looking it's beautiful thing. Plus he's extremely owner responsive.
