Trimac or Flowerhorn Trivia....

[KLee79]

Bought this guy like a month and a half ago and he's doubled in size. He was sold as a flowerhorn, but this is coming from a pet store not known for their fish keeping..what do you guys think?

Sorry for the pics..have to pull fish out to take pics and see how big they actually are..

Second that trimac throught!!

Derf! Its got flower spots so its a flowerhorn

No, its does look like a trimac.

 

[KLee79]

thats what i thought..the rest of them are still at the store but much smaller. nobody wants to buy them i guess. maybe i should go pick the rest of em up..

 

[Chrisplosion]

How much?

 

[KLee79]

i picked it up for 12 but they might have gone down in price-nobody knows what they are at that store. I'll go up there and offer a cheaper price and they'll take it. theres at least 3-4 left.

Id say flowerhorn. It has way too big of a beak for a trimac IMO.

Heres a pic of my old one the day I got him from Rapps...about the same size

Trimacs can have more than 3 spots.
