Here is my beauty from Petsmart... I just posted in the media lounge yesterday asking if this was a red texas, but it's a Kamfa! These 2 fish were both sold as red texas... I think the ugly one is a female. Is there any way to tell besides venting?...

Here's another pic of my new guy. Any ideas on what it could be? There is a ~slight~ blotch on the side of the head, not sure if you can see it in the pic, but that sort of tells me it's a Kamfa vs a RT. I'm hoping Red Texas, but am VERY ok if Kamfa as well. I'm just shooting for a colerful fish and something that I really haven't raised before and I've never had either.

Nice looking fish! Looks like a red tex to me. The flower on his head is kinda a flowerhorn trait though. If it fades its got nice color and should look very nice. Wish my petsmart got fish that looked like that.

Looks like a fader, but his body a fun shape is weird. I would leave him. I've seen better quality flowerhorns come from the red tex tank than the ones labeled flowerhorn.
