I started fish keeping with red devils and midas because I love their personality. I always hated africans because they just bore the crap out of me. Ever since I learned about flowerhorns I've wanted to keep them. They have pretty much the same personality of all the fish I loved before just better traits in general. When picking a midas or red devil you don't have much to chose from whether it be orange, barred, piebald f1, f2 whatever.. When picking a flowerhorn your possibilities are almost endless. You can't say **** about them until you own one IMO. As long as you don't buy a ugly low-grade one (which would be your fault) then you should end up with a fish you will love for a long time.

You said it bro same with me.I love him I love breeding them.There just bad ass
 
what appeals to people is different with different people. everyone likes different things cause they're wired different. Personally I love the there KOKS(I hope that doesn't sound to weird), and color. I havent had one yet so I dont know anything on there personality

Just call it a nuchal hump since that's what it is. They call them kok's in another language I still don't understand what the deal is with everybody calling them koks in english even though everybody does..

Your comment isnt making much since bro. If you dont like Flowerhorns, post a real reason why. "Im not trying to pick a fight", however I should left you know that all flowerhorns dont have NH-KoK's. So your reason for not liking them is...



Flowerhorn tend to have the "base" Midas/Red Devil personality. However all dont. To me, the best thing about Flowerhorns is their color and pearls. I like the head on the, however I do not like the monster heads. You know I dont have a problem with anyone whom doesnt like hybrids, bro I really dont. However I tend to flame when people say things like. I hate hybrids, and then you go to their home and they own a RTC/TSN cross like its not a hybrid. There are plenty of purist here who only except natural sp, as you can see Im not one of those people. I love fish with personality. FH have that. I also keep Dats, CL, Royal Plecs(hoping they will let me have feed them) and a few other fish. After typing all this mumbojumbo it all boils down to preference. If you choose not to like them, please just have a real reason why and not try to make up a reason.

I'm not the same person that posted the thing about hating hybrids or the head bump. I didn't make up a reason for not liking them. I was asking what it is that people like. People posted responses that answered my question. Thanks for the responses.
 
I like them for their attitude and their ever-changing state. Some FHs, you never know what they'll look like when they get big so the surprise at the end is also what attracts me to them.
 
i like them because they seem to be tha master of cichlids, i have a tank divided up with fhs and no ones ever been able to put their hands in it yet.
