So I picked up a roughly 8 inch male trimac today. Is their anything special I need to know about this fish or is it just like most big aggressive cichlid. He's shy at the moment but I know he's only new to the tank he is on his own well with a pictus catfish. What is the best result and feeding for these fish I know their carnivores but any special dietary needs that I can accelerate his growth

Not difficult to care for would definitely get the Trimac on a good brand pellet.
Yes considered a aggressive species. Pristine water conditions proper aquarium size and consistent water changes that will keep Nitrate level low for ultimate growth.

Nathan1989 Nathan1989 , Awesome pick up! We need pictures of the future beast!

Did you end up keeping the Hoga too? My Hoga are all gone and a little while back I ended up with a Trimac also. Looking forward to seeing pics

From the one pic I would say not 100% trimac, before that ridiculous flowerhorn started this was never a discussion...
