I'm looking to see if the opinions of other fish keepers match up with what I was told my flowerhorns were by the shop. I know to expect color changes but I'd like to see what what breed I'm possibly looking at. I'll attach a couple pics of each.

So I've been having some issues with my flowerhorn, he hasn't been eating for about 4 weeks so I've been tube feeding small amounts once a day of hikari pellet mush.

Hi, sorry for the poor photo, the fish is in a poorly lit hospital tank. I am trying to figure out what that hole in the head is. See the white mark on the photo? That's actually a crater in the head... Some context, I got this Flowerhorn 2-3 months ago. Thanks to COVID I didn't have a chance...

Sad videos, but really shows what can happen if a Piranha and cichlid ever fought for territories! Frightening, I worry the Flowerhorn is blind, did it's eye get bit?? Poor dovii too. How often do you think this happens in the wild? I always thought dovii's and Amphilophus are top dogs of the...

My flowerhorn is having black patches on he head and on top of his body. It is really confusing I have tried many things to order to get rid of it. The water quality is good I do a 40% water change every week, I wasn't having a heater about 2 weeks earlier as I live in a tropical region and...

Certain articles telling that a F1 kamfa or we can say a Classic kamfa is the result of breeding between Vieja species like Vieja synspilum & Vieja hartwegi. Some articles written that F1 is the result of ZZ flowerhorn & Red head cichlid (Vieja sp.). Please clarify which one is correct?

Hi! I am fairly new to keeping cichlids and purchased a Flowerhorn about a month ago. I come home today and notice that he has some open flesh wounds around his gills on one side. He is alone in the tank, other than rocks and plants. So I’m thinking that maybe he scraped himself against a rock...

Hi, I'm new to the forum! I recently purchased a "Texas" Cichlid from a local pet store but after a few days of being home. It is showing more coloration and characteristics of a flowerhorn? Anyone have any ideas on what species this may be? I'm new to the cichlid hobby, so please excuse my...

Has anyone ever fed a flowerhorn a diet where there is more vegetables as opposed to protein? I'm interested in the heath effects of something like like this. This thread isn't meant to talk about pellet food btw, it's about actual fresh food or home made food.

Is anyone who owns a fireman's dream FH willing to talk about their health? I think they are absolutely beautiful but I don't know if they live long and I actually want a FH that lives longer than a couple years.
