what is this?

Picked up this little 3-4" flowerhorn yesterday. Lovely little fish. Any ideas on a scientific name or strain of FH? Also think its a male due to its long flowing fins and its slight nuchal hump. Any ideas?

It is a Red Dragon ZZ and FH do not get scientific names...

It's a RD ZZ for sure..
Now can anyone explain to me why the flowerline in the middle appears to be white/faded? Mine has that feature as well & I'm really curious..

Red Dragon eh? sounds good.

What does ZZ stand for?

Thanks
