Rule number 1: If your male is a firm Kamfa, it won't be able to fertile another Kamfa. No one knows why, but Kamfa can't cross with another Kamfa.
Rule number 2: If your male is fertile, cross it with a KKP - it will have pearls and possibly look even better with a variety of eye color(and still a Kamfa).
Rule number 3: Crossing it with a Texas, it will be like throwing a dart in the dark - your chance is 50/50 that it will still be a Kamfa.

:D

Thanks bro... I might just be throwing the dart into the dark.... I have about 5-6 female escondidos. When they grow a couple more inches, I'm thinking about just throwing them all in with my kamfa. I know most of them will die but isn't this the best way to have him pair off with one?

Yae or nay??

Nay, choose the best looking female and pair it up with your male only. In the flowerhorn breeding world, you don't let them pair up. It's all about selective breeding for what you want. Most of the time if you want to breed, you have to get a picture of what are you really aiming for. If throw them all in there, most likely they are going to be killed only. Not pair up, and if they do pair up...the rest will be killed. Just choose one and condition them by putting in a divider and have a hole where the female can swim through into the male side, and if need to retreat for cover she can always go back into that hole. There is many way that many people wish to condition them, and I'm just naming one way of doing it. Another way is to put up a divider completely without any access to each other, and just wait to see if your female is willing to drop her tube etc.
After they have bred, I highly advise you to remove the father and leave the mother in with the eggs, or completely remove both of the parents. I wouldn't move the egg only because the water in the other tank may not be the same in terms of temperature and what not. It can may every effect to the eggs itself. You can relocate after they are free swimming, but I wouldn't advise you to remove the egg into a new tank unless you are completely positive about your eggs being very stable and won't spoil. Although some have done it multiple times with success, but many have also failed the attempt also. :D
 
breeding FH is such a pain... my males always beat up on the females the when she lays the eggs she beats up my male :(.
