Has any one seen a purple flame flowerhorn i just seen one at the LFS. and was thinking of gettin some???
 
sounds like a made up name by the LFS. snap some photos and we'll tell you if its worth it.
 
never heard or seen of them. musha, camph and JP see this, they will tell u x
 
Now a days, FH comes in all sorts of coloration. I've seen purple flame, electric blue, even a goldish FH.
Go for it if you want it...it's not common at all, probably some of the rarer FH.
 
Beans said it, its def a made up name to give their product more zing. If the fish has falme in the name its probably "probably" faded ZZ strain. hope this helps and pictures would be nice. Where are you from?

Not really made up...is it really made up? I saw the fish myself today at my LFS. You decide...click on the link below for the electric blue, although they listed as diamond blue. That guy was about 5" and its going for $125.00, I wish I have the $$$ :D

Looks like a mature Thai Silk to me with a fancy name slapped on it...
