Poll #2 Trimac or Flowerhorn (New Pics)

[FishingOut]

Looks alot like this fish...
For $10, dont expect a great looking exotic fish. If you dont know the breeder its impossible for people to give you a definite answer, No matter how many times you ask. Its shaped like a trimac, but has more peals than most, So every answer you get is just opinion.
IMO, All signs point to low grade female FH.

Only that the owner breeds cichlids and runs a wholesale. I don't know Petsmart sells "trimacs", are the name Three Spot?

I understand that. But why do you think its female?

It looks male to me.

I'm not an expert on Flowerhorns obviously so what I'm asking is about is what about my fish makes its a Flowerhorn. Some of you said "because it has more pearls", that what I'm looking for is an answer that explains not "nice flowerhorn". I except the fact that its more than likely a Flowerhorn I just want to know what about it make its a Flowerhorn. Same goes for gender.

But why is it a flowerhorn. I'm not denying it could be but give an answer as to why its a flowerhorn. You might as well say its a convict.

The color around the flower line and amount of spangles.

Are these Flowerhorns as well:

Interesting video. According to him the flower line has nothing to do with it being flowerhorn or trimac.
