None. your fh is still young dont teach him that freeky stuff.

And I dont see anything good out of those females to make FHs ppl want to keep.. Only thing good I see is the seam of the GT, but lol GL

Maybe I should of made myself more clear. My female rd flowerhorn has already laid eggs 2 times in the last month so when is the right time to breed her. She's already laying eggs so is there a certain time that you can tell me that she's ready. Is this still teaching her the freaky stuff? Like I originally said, I would like to now what would be a good fish to breed with her. I don't understand why you think that the frys aren't what people want especially that you don't know what would breed with her. You haven't even seen the fish. Not to be sarcastic but I just don't understand your post with what I originally posted, Ed
 
get a male synspilum, or fenny
 
oh. I thought your fish was a male

I havent seen any fish youre talking about and if that matters then should post them up.

breed whatever u like it's up to u at the end. But out of these your highest chance for success is in the Red Devils..

If I was with u at the lfs I'd tell you to get a nice FH male for her no matter what she looks like

I'm sorry I came off as an ***. Thank you for your suggestion. I have a lot to learn and I hope you will forgive me for being defensive, Ed.
 
what you talkin about? dont trip

I have never seen GT or Firemouth X with any other fish.. I hope someone else will tell you more about why and such.

But Red devil x other fish I've known of plenty..

crossing FH back to pure breed may add hybrid vigor and at the same time upset the balance of overall look/quality of the FH line. imo

I do recommend crossing a FH to a pure breed that you think may add something new we've never seen before.
 
Gt cannot hybridize out of its genus. Get a nice syn to cross it with or another fh
