| He is at present housed in a 3X2X1.5 tank will be getting a bigger one soon. Diet: XO Humpy Head, shrimps (Freeze dried) and live fish two times a day in circles. Water neutral of 7 Ph but added crushed corals for a higher Ph buffer and now it is around 7.2 PH. I am using Umax 250 cannister for filteration |

Venky, You have a superb flowerhorn.
This thread on pics of local flowerhorns will be of interest to you.

Hey Venky
That's one beautiful FH
Am setting up a new tank for FH in couple of days, is 42" 15" 24" a descent enough size to keep a 8" FH?
Any suggestions for tank setup.
Regards,
Swapnil |

@Swapka
Your tank dimensions are OK. Have bright background and coloured gravel and see the colours they get I would suggest cycle the tank for a month or so. As flowerhorns are boisterous eaters, a good filteration system and a weekly water change of 50-60% will work well.
