I have been keeping fish for 10-11 years and have just recently started keeping larger fish. i am thinking of getting a 75 or 125 for the wife and she likes flowerhorns. i only know that they are large hybrids of sa/ca cichlids. being that they are hybrids, i find it hard to research different types and their names. are their different levels of difficulty with different types or are they pretty much the same? how are they with aggression? as you can see i know nothing about FH. Also ,she likes oscars, blood parrots, and green terrors and some other cichlids. how would i got about mixing them. what should i exclude. i know a great deal about african cichlids but very little, other than names and sizes, about sa/ca cichlids. like most people start out with ps zebra in african cichlid, is there a starter FH? any and all basic information, MFK links and FH sites would be greatly appreciated. what does ZZ, AAA... mean
 
There are SO many different breeds of Flowerhorns. The two main categories that most of the breeds fit into are ZZ and Kamfa. Take a look at the diagrams below for how to tell the difference between the two. If you want more info, I would definitely check out FLOWERHORNRUSFORUM.COM. They should be able to answer any question you can throw at them.
