What type of flowerhorn is my Hector?

[Paolow]

I got him about a week ago. 3 inches long.
I can’t seem to find what specific type of flowerhorn he is. Thanks!

Yes, that would be my guess too, but it can be so hard to tell nowadays, there are just so many more types of crosses out there as breeders are constantly experimenting with new lines.

In any case you should be happy, that's a really nice looking first flowerhorn bro, good luck with him! (read the stickies and past posts for plenty of good advice).

True. So many of them. A bit overwhelming for someone new to these monsters.
Thanks. My wife absolutely love him. He is so interactive too!

Zz. Make sure u watch ur water parameters. They tend to be sensitive when the tank is dirty.
