Hey guys I've got a 4 inch female flowerhorn, she's growing like crazy and is in a 75. She's got a big black patch on her dorsal and no sign of of any hump so I'm assuming and hoping it's a female so it will fit in the 75 long term. Anyway was wondering if I should just keep her alone or if there's anything I can put in there that she won't destroy when she's older? A medium sized catfish or something? Whatever you guys think, thanks! Also this is what she looks like:)

My female is 5-6 inches and is the toughest in her tank. In a 250 gal with 1 8 inch Midas, 1 7 inch Jack demsey, and 6 parrot fish ranging from 6-8 inches so pretty much really big strong fish that can put up a fight with a FH ,even though I hate my tank set up but can't get rid of them cause my fathers fish. Only the FH is mine. Also I recommend tank mates as armored catfish, big ones, or fast moving target fish or other tough cichlids that is all I can think of.
