Hello everyone! Been a while since I've posted on here. I recently set up my tank and picked up a Flowerhorn at the LFS. They called it a "Golden Flowerhorn", but it's really hard to tell it's true color. I was wondering if some of you folks could help me in figuring out it's gender and what type of Flowerhorn this is. I took the photos this evening (6/24) and it is approximately 2" long.

Thank you in advance for the replies! Oh, and please excuse the poop. :headshake
 
Here are more recent photos. Just took these about 20 minutes ago. The fish is just above the 2 inch marker. Any idea if it's male or female?

Cannot confirm anything on sex or identification of what strain just yet. Have to wait it out a little longer to see what kind of physical look it is putting out. 3-4" might be a good time to update your flowerhorn again.

Thanks for the tip. I'll keep that in mind.
 
i would be in female 70%, male 30% because of the black mark on its dorsal fin..
