I was really hoping to snag a Red Texas from Petsmart when I went, and I think I may have found one. I know the salespeople in the fish section cant tell a goldfish from a red devil, so I just went off looks instead of labels. What do you guys think?? The first 3 pics are of the 2" flowerhorn that I bought just because it was really pretty, the last 3 is what I'm hoping is a 1.5" Red Texas (and not a poor-quality flowerhorn.) Please help ID this fish!! Thanks!P1050994.JPGP1050995.JPGP1050996.JPGP1050997.JPGP1050998.JPGP1050999.JPG

They look like flowerhorns to me, not RT's.

If I were you I'd quickly snatch the one that shows in the first 3 pictures, he seems to have very good potential.
:drool:
 
I think they both are flowerhorn the short body 1 is real low grade but the other one is a stunner and should look real nice when mature. I am surprised at some of the petsmart flowerhorn I have seen they actually have some potiential. If you want a real red texas cjBarth on here has real quality fry at a decent price
