I have seen these Flowerhorn many of times....At the size yous it at, no I do not think it will be a nice SHAPE....Yes maybe color will be nice, looks a little faded though(probably the camera quality)....Always know this, when choosong Flowerhorn, look for body shape....The nuchal hump on its forehead should be well pronounced....Even at 2 or 3 inches, I have seen spawns with the majoity already having well pronounced foreheads....The color will come, lets face it, most(if not all)Flowerhorns are *** flags(lots of color)....But look for well shaped foreheads and responsive attitudes...
It's almost impossiable to tell what it will turnout like. Unless you get a AAA fish that looks like a mini adult it's not easy. All i can say is grow it out and enjoy it as they morph many times. I have a LFS Flowerhorn that i paid like 7 bucks for as a fry and i think he is cool looking now. Is it a master peice? Prolly not but I still like him.
When i first got him.
My guess is this is him at just a touch bigger than yours is now.
A few months later.
Another 2 months go by
Current pics
he doesn't have a giant head but I think the giant head fish are kinda ugly anyway.
He is also more like a pet than just a fish. Take good care of your fish and he will reward you.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^Nice fins, well propotioned body....Candy color.....I likey a lot....The number quality that attracts a lot of buyes to the FLowerhorn is their "respondsive" attitude...You go to any fish store and walk by a 1 inch or 15 inch speciman, and they follow you like gaurd pitbulls....I do agree Dasmopar, smart fish are more than "fish," they are pets....
