What would you consider this fish?

[loureyes]

[phobull]

It does look very nice though, Yay i got off 666 post evil number!!

That is what its parents were but its Kamfa Fader. ZZ x Blood Parrot throws out Kamfa.

you could say that but the fry from the fish would be very unstable. 2/3 generations i'd call it a kamfa

What does this even mean? It's not going to mutate into another type of fish.

 

[tiddlywinks]

i mean the babies would be very diffrent varieties.

when do flowerhorn fish fade or peel?

when do flowerhorn fish fade or peel?

Any time of their life but with the ones ive had mostly between 2.5"-5". They don't always fade right away though sometime it takes a while.

I'd call it a ZZkamfa...not quite Kamfa yet. Even though you may consider this fish to be a Kamfa, but keep in mind that you can only really claim such by what its criteria are. You can cross a ZZ x Parrot or ZZ x Kamfa, and a whole variety will be thrown out. Some will be Kamfa, ZZkamfa, and even straight up looking ZZ with yellow/orange/white eyes. Anything cross with a parrot is the Thai standard for creating a Kamfa. But that doesn't mean it's going to be a Kamfa...
