Here's 3 of my 7 PK's. The first is the biggest one, which I'm just assuming is male, then one that size-wise puts it in the middle (but it's second in aggression), and the last one is the smallest one (but somehow still the 3rd in pecking order and the only one who actually fully claimed a territory in the tank).

Anyway, they all look completely different. The second one looks sort of like a premature red texas, but the biggest one couldn't pass for one unless you were blind. He looks more like one of those Breidohri x Thai Silk crosses (along with the other 4 I didn't take pictures of). I tried my best to get the white balance accurate in the images, but I've never shot under fluorescent lights, let alone in a tannin dyed aquarium either, so the colors are kind of misleading. The biggest one is more blue-ish with red on the fins and chest.

Ah rage quit! Lol that larger male is amazing.
Lol the one I posted? Thanks! I'll make sure to take more pictures as he progresses and gets used to the camera. It's been almost 5 years since I've grown out a flowerhorn, and this is the fastest the hump has been so pronounced (he's around 2.5" right now).

The one on the left is the first PK i got back in January. About 8 inches now... He/she has a new home now. Is it male or female? Dug alot of nests and guarded them... Caused fights between the red flowerhorn and 5 star jewel cichlid... red guy lost his tail but is healing well! The blue spangled one on the right is also a Petsmart "Red Texas" kinda short bodied and has a red underside and a red bottom half on his tail two tone like a Peacock bass would get... I posted this one as a juvi back on March 24th I think? Its about 5 or 6 inches+ now analyze them please! I'll get better closer pics soon! I guess I will have to post pics next...
