Just wanted to share some pics of my two flowerhorns, not sure if they qualify as shortbody or bonzai. Their bodies are way shorter than the usual shortbody fh but less triangular shaped than bonzai. Most of you guys probably won't like them that much judging by the majority of posts that are about large mean looking fish.

It's so hard to take profile pictures of these fish, once they see you they start facing you begging for food.

short bodies.
how in the hell does that angel in the 4th pic manage to stay alive?!
 
Angel fish are pretty hardcore.. lol
A fren of mine bought 2 angels as feeders for his fish but they just wont die.. lol

hkg69, you have some awesome SB.. nice coloration too.. :)
 
I always had a bit of a soft spot for angels (they were the first tropical fish my dad kept), never had too many problems mixing them with other fish. Actually a few smaller ones did bite the dust :D

The flowerhorn is too busy begging for food or chasing the parrots all day, he kinda ignores the angels. When I just got him, I put him in a tank with a larger female parrot who was a bit of a horny dominatrix - think that might have mellowed him a bit.
