Few days ago I bought a new filter on the fish kiosk when I noticed this flower horn. I didn't take interest because this fish is expensive and delicate for care.
But when he told me that the smallest one was only 3$, I didn't hesitate to purchase it.
Sadly, I think this doesn't have the big head over it. I've only read a few post here about flower horn fish and some were not in favor for it.

I guess that is the reason why it is sold at that price. I think they are really hardy fish but they need a large space to swim on. I also think they are carnivorous as well and can become a bit territorial and they might need to be aggressive with other fish so they should be put in their own tank and not mixed with other kinds of aquarium fish.

@Letranknight2015 Yup as it grows stronger and and realises that he/she needs space she'll become protective and become territorial in time. For now I guess being alone in a new aquarium she's trying to learn her ways in there. you can feed her live foods like worms and others so she can grow faster and healthier

Hello @rsa101 For the moment he/she's too small for being aggressive. I hope the fish grows to be friendly with them.

@rsa101 To be honest I don't want the flowerhorn to grow faster because I've seen what it does to other fish. Like you said it will need huge space.

there is something good about the fish, some times things turn out differently.

@Letranknight2015 of course, why not? Have you seen a video of a half tilapia pet? half tilapia? survived?

Turns out there are other kinds of flower horn and this might have no big head. Besides, I used to have one that was a gold fish like and its head was eaten.

The problem with flowerhorns is they are not very sociable, you can't mix them with other fishes.

Finally you are free from goldfishes who always try to find creative ways to die.
