Can a female Flowerhorn cichlid and a Male Jack Dempsey successfully produce offspring?
Q. I think my flowerhorn and Jack Dempsey could possibly have a mating pair. Is this possible or am I seeing things? I noticed these two had one side of the tank and my other Dempseys and one Red Terror stayed to the other side.

A. Though its very difficult to mate a flowerhorn, but they are compatible to JD's, so yes, if you are lucky, they will mate and successfully.

What nutrients do flowerhorn fish need?
Q. I want to know what part of nutrients do flowrhorn fish need the most. Why some flowerhorn fish food contains "Ash"? What do moistures do? What part of nutrient makes flowerhorn fish's bump bigger?
Asked by Sammi - Fri Jul 4 23:02:31 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. You need to basically keep their main diet a good cichlid pellet. I really like Hikari's Cichlid Gold pellet, it is a good all around cichlid food that contains everything they need to stay healthy. I have just ordered another pellet food from Hikari called Bio-Gold, it is supposed to be very good for South American cichlids. Flowerhorns are hybrid cichlids, but the species they come from are all South and Central American cichlids, so as long as you keep the diet the same as it would be for any other SA or CA cichlid you should be fine. No food will help the hump get larger on the Flowerhorn, this is a genetic trait, feeding it a specific food will do nothing to the hump that will not happen naturally. MFK

Is it possible to put a Male flowerhorn and a Female flowerhorn together in a 50 gallon tank?
Q. Will they fight? Are female flowerhorn aggressive?
Asked by aznsuperman123 - Fri Jun 20 02:19:41 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments
A. It is possible, but it won't last more than a week or two with so little space. As adults, a pair (meaning that they decided to cooperate with each other) should have at the very least, a 75 gallon tank. These fish form pairs on their own-- simply putting a female and male together means nothing. If they don't pair up, one will likely kill the other (usually the male killing the female). While it could work short term, the chances are very slim, and you'd still need to upgrade in the future.

A. Those don't sound like a parasite at all but instead the larvae of some small fly or midge. Odds are good the feeders had fed heavily on them at some point at spit them out from time to time and they ended up in all of your tanks. It's also possible they were in your feeder tank when you added the feeders and were then transferred to the main tank with the feeder fish. One thing is for certain, the feeders would not have been spitting out a parasitic worm, it just doesn't work out that way. Since most treatments for internal parasites are quite harsh on the fish, I would suggest you watch the situation carefully for any changes. If these are larvae, they will hatch within a few days and you will probably notice tiny gnats or midges… [cont.]

A. This is what happens when you do not research prior to buying a fish. Flowerhorns are best kept solo. They are indeed very aggressive, and will eat anything that fits in its mouth. I hope you have an extra 75 gallon tank on hand, just for the flowerhorn. I also hope you have a 2000 gallon tank ready for the ID shark. They grow enormous. Below is picture proof of how large they grow.

Asked by Sammi - Sun Jul 6 21:25:45 2008 - - 1 Answers - 1 Comments
A. None, the flowerhorns hump has nothing to do with the nutrients that it ingests. The size of the hump is controlled by the breeder and what fish are used to create it. This is the goal of most breeders is to get the biggest hump possible, this is mostly why you will see the prices of flowerhorns vary so much. All you can do is make sure to give the fish a big enough tank so that it can grow, keep the water clean, and feed it a healthy diet. Other than that there is nothing you can do make the hump bigger, just be patient. MFK

Asked by Rolando D - Tue May 13 16:01:05 2008 - - 4 Answers - 0 Comments
A. I am not a fan of these at all, actually I think they are pretty much a waste of money. The problem with them is that they are a man made strain, and on top of that they charge top dollar for them. In my opinion, I'd much rather have a pure cichlid such as a Dovii, Managuense, or a Salvini. Either way, some people are really atracted to these hybrids and so be it, you can find them going for $50 - $1,000, I think the priceing really goes by how big of a hump the fish has been bred to grow. There is really no scale for pricing to say how much you should or shouldn't pay, it is all about how much are you willing to pay. Below is a site that sells them young for a decent price, good luck.

A. I am not a fan of these at all, actually I think they are pretty much a waste of money. The problem with them is that they are a man made strain, and on top of that they charge top dollar for them.
