Purple rose queen or flowerhorn ?

[Dave333]

I have had this fish for about 2 years. It's about 12 inches long. I would like to sell it if anyone is interested. It's a great looking fish but I'm not sure if it's a purple rose queen or flowerhorn.

Looks like a flowerhorn to me.

Looks like a flowerhorn to me.

I don't know what the difference between the 2 breeds are. Can you tell me what the difference is ? Or how to tell the 2 species apart ?

I imagine your in the US, but where Abouts are you?
I have to say IMO it's a very nice looking rose queen, likely crossed a generation or so before, but still, nearer rose queen then Flowerhorn.
The 'kok' is more similar to Red Devils ect then Flowerhorn and also has a rose queen mouth,
Unless kamfa Flowerhorn most generally have red eyes which is also a strong clue. Either way, great looking fish, I'm suprised you want to part with him, would make a brilliant breeder in a project

Can you show me pictures as a juvenile please?

It's a fader or normal Kamfa Flowerhorn nothing else with a lot of Midas genes
