For some reason.. This fish looks stunted to me.. I'd give it a 8 :], 10 when its not so stressed out lol. Its a male for sure.

I give you 7.5 for this one at this time because it's in a "drop" stage.

Kok potential is really good. Short face is nice but a little bit too sharp.

Red enhancer needed for the long run results.

You should try to use a 10 minutes mirror trick a day. Better to get that parrot out at this age.

-------------------------------------------------------

The chest to lower fin seem to be short to be male.

However, the upper fin have faded black spot which could be female.

But I'm quit sure that this one is 90% Male.

Will i though the parrot enhance the hump of my male, and make him dominated in his divider. Parrot = dekoy just to get beatup or is this wrong?

This might sound crazy. But I used to see the FH at very small ages breed with parrot. The FH is around 3-4 months old I guess?

By the way, it's better to learn from bettas. (Of course you know it's thai fighting fish.)

The way to make them more colorful is to let them window fight for 10 minutes a day. Not the whole days whole nights.

What you do will make them get used to it until there is no color effect left. So I suggest that just 3 times/ 10 minutes/ a day will work best! However, you may not use a mirror trick if you have many fish like that.

Edited : If your fish is too tired just like marathon running, your fish will lay down in the bottom of the tank instead of happy fighting with your fingers. Just like in the VDO. It will come to your finger when it wanna eat something. But mine is the whole time wanna eat my fingers. And that's because he's not tired. He willing to eat me anytime he can. Then you can happy with your fish the whole day.

PS. I can even touch his hump (but beware of some bites!) and play with it.

G'luck!

cool looking favicon.png bro definitely gonna be koky for sure. He looks scared/stress bars I am sure he'll adjust nicely in your tank I give it a 7.5 as well just needs more color. Turn up the heat it will make him a bit more comfortable and a dash of salt.

I like your golden parrots as well.

Here a Update with This Lovely Stress Out Flowerhorn.

"I KNOWN YOUR WATCHING THIS CLIP" Leave A Comment!!!

Looks good to me. 8/10. biggrin.gif
Kane123
9.5 from 10!!!

He has a very good development in a very short period. Kok is bigger. Red area is increasing.

Hope to have more red soon!

BTW, he stress on the back of the VDO. LOL!

-------------

Don't you think the oxygen pump is too loud? it sound like your house is in a factory all the time. That's not good for your family wealthiness as sound annoying your baby. You have a baby, right? (I heard it.)

-------------

Another trick for you : Make water flow if you can! The flow will give exercise. The "proper" exercise will give more strong, bigger kok and no stress. (***To much exercise will kill your fish)

9 Very nice FH, I'm sure he'll be a MP biggrin.gif
Courtney
I would give him a 7 or 8, very pretty. He does look pretty stressed out or sick. Is he eating?
240sx
Oh YES he dose eat, kinda strange but he is shy of camra, evertime i come close with a camra he become stress i guess its just his nature. Any recommend
Eddy
what kind of flowerhorn is that?
Brickbig
second video looks way better, doesn't seem as stressed. it looks like it really wants to get on the other side of the tank hahah. must have a hot female on the other side he wants to say hey to lol 4.gif 4.gif . for the camera you could try and leave it close to the tank turned off so he could get used to it, if it has any lights or anything like a red light maybe try and put something over it. you could also try and see if he would ignore the camera if u put a mirror or something in there, get his attention away from it. cool double flower line and lil kokster biggrin.gif
