[RedSnooks]

Hi was wondering if anyone can id my fish for me i picked it up from a friend who was taking crappy care of it so its still getting healthy I would like to know if its
M/F and if anyone knows what type of flowerhorn thanks

Appears to be a very dark male ZZ. He will probably brighten up with better care.

OK thx .. I have him in a tank with my snook while his 90 is cycling. He came in and bossed it immediately i dunno if my snook will make it before the tank is done. One more thing he has this thing poping out right by his ass is that good or bad as you probably know ive never owned a flowerhorn.. THanks

May be a female and her breedng tube is out. Could be another reason for the dark coloring,idk for sure just my thought

Where did you see her tube dropping? Or am I just blind?...

Almost certainly it's "manbits" or "lady bits". Although sure looks like a male to me with it's big chunky features.

agree with hamfist...

I never said saw her tube,it was just a suggestion as to his seeing something sticking out by its arse.
