I have the opportunity to pick up a proven pair of trimac x synspilum for my 180g 6x2x2 which currently has a lone pearsei patrolling it, would this be big enough and would the pearsei be ok?

Big enough probably, and no on pearsei....I have a feeling they will kill it or stress it bad enough until it dies.

If those are pics of the pair, the male is not a syn. Looks to be a FH of some sort. That pearsei would likely get shredded.
 
Not sure how much synspilum is in them...they look like they're pretty heavy on the trimac side. If they act accordingly anything in a 180 with them would be a goner.

I rang the shop back and apparently as mentioned they were listed as AAA Flowerhorns. They have assumed that they're a Trimac x Synspilum hybrid. So it's anyone's guess. Is it possible that they are 100% trimac?

I have a choice between these for £100 the pair.
Or...
Some Flowerhorn x Synspilum for £5 each but not sure what they may look like once grown. I have no idea but they are vivid pink at 2". Any ideas?

Ok so don't get any of them and wait, but for what?

If the second cross won't look like any of the examples then would you be able to send a link to something plausible that it may look like.

I am on here to get feedback before making any purchases.

One me final question, why would you not buy the Trimac (mixes?!)?
