Advice... Keep temperature between 82 and 86 for a healthy and active Thai\Titanium Floho. Also with every water change use a small amount of Epsom salt. They tend to get backed up because of protein. This will improve there digestive process.

Basically treat them almost like a Discus. Titanium's or Thai Silk are a beautiful but weaker strain of Flowerhorn.
Owh ic.. my temprature is currently at 87 or 30 degrees celsius... is that too warm for him? May i know what is Epsom salt? izzit the normal freshwater salt? anyways thanks for the advice brother...

I bought a 3" Titanium FH for $75 (on line vs $100 in store) at That Pet Place. Attached are pictures when I first got him and another one year later.

FYI - He is darker in the second picture largely because of the change to black sand (vs white in first picture).

I feed him NLS. Kok has not changed much over the past 6 months. It may have peaked out.

Good luck with yours. They have more personality than most fish.
Thanks for sharing mate.. great Thai silk! I'll try with mine and see how it goes after 6 months.. will definately update you.

Owh i didnt know therez different kok types on flowerhorn... i thought its just flesh.. hahaha.. well as for the price you guys gonna freak out.. i got it for 50 Ringgit Malaysia that is about 16 USD. Kinda lucky tho...

16 USD, thats a steal:D
 
Epsom salt is sold in supermarkets where medicine is. It is used for people to help with going to the bathroom as well as if you put in tub with hot water and you can lay in it because it helps with muscle pain.. back.. arm etc.
