He is the centerpiece of our living room and is the coolest "wet pet" I have ever had! More personality than all my other fish put together! Love this guy!

This is the only one with good lighting.

Thanks for looking.

Oh I almost forgot his name is Kahuna.:headbang2
 
weird! kinda cool looking... what kind of blood is in it, species wise?
 
Thats a red Terror Mix of some sort, not a pure Flower Horn, but with that said, it is an absolutely beautiful fish. Very nice. How big is it?
 
Sick fish!!! How big is he?
 
Thanks everyone for the comments! He is about 12" now. here is a pic of his parents. I forget what they called his mother.

He is a late bloomer though. His "tumor is only now starting to come out. Funny. Someone told me he was a Kamfa type is this true? Anyone know?

Thanks again for the comments!
 
very nice looking FH u have there..
 
Father looks to be either a Kamfa or ZZ, very nice one, I would go with Kamfa, but im just starting to get deeper into this flower horn thing. The mother looks like a Super Red or something. RD I think they are called, someone with more knowledge on FH will chime in. Im still in the begining learning phase.

Your's really doesn't look like it came from them, no offense, it's a great looking fish, but I just don't see the FH traits in it. How big is it?
