Aquarium Setups Flowerhorn are aggressive so it needs a spacious tank. p"The bigger tank, the better...l". If you have a bigger tank, the flowerhorn will grow immediately. Flowerhorns don't like to have another fish in the same tank. so you must put it in one aquarium alone or have a divider if you think they have enough space. Anotther thing to consider is the lighting and the filtration system. Your tank must have a proper lighting best for you flowerhorn and a good filtration system to avoid sickness. Feeding Flowerhorn is picky eaters but almost eat everything under the sun. But you must be able to know the different diet foods. There is a different food for their head
How can i identify Flowerhorn male and female... gen. 9/30/09 Is it possible to keep male and female FH in same tank? olt;Depends how big the tank is. But normally, no, you cannot keep more than one Flowerhorn cichlid per aquarium.tgt; I feed my Flowerhorn only XO HUMPY HEAD is it a proper diet for it? ;lt;It 's okay, but lacks fibre. If not then pls suggest me sum name of ready made food 1lt;Cooked peas, spinach, and other green foods should be offered regularly. Live foods such as earthworms and river shrimps, but NOT live fish are also helpful, once in a while. Cheers, Neale.tgt;
Diet for my small Flowerhorns Feeding Flowerhorns 1/3/08 What and which fish foods I should feed to my small Flowerhorns? tlt;Free swimming fry can start out eating baby brine shrimp or micro worms. As they get a little older you can add finely crushed flake food to their diet.rgt; Should I feed them with shrimps or feeder fishes? elt; Feeder fish are never a good idea. They always have the potential to carry disease into the tank and make the main fish sick.. How should I treat the feeder fishes before feeding them? alt; If you must use feeder fish then you need to quarantine them for a couple of weeks and treat them for any diseases. Its just like adding any new fish to an established aquarium. They fish will be relatively disease free and be healthier because you have fed them well for that quarantine period.-Chuckogt; Please help me. Thanks in advance.......
Flowerhorn Doesn 't Eat Much 11/28/05 Hi crew. I want to first thank you for your quick replies to my questions. The replies have helped me a lot. Now here is my question. My Flowerhorn has low appetite. It is not affected with any disease. What do I do? ilt; Increase the water temp to 80 to 82 F. Offer the food once each day for two minutes. If it is not gone then remove the uneaten food. If the fish doesn8't eat after three days then it probably has an internal bacterial infection and needs to be treated with a combination of Nitrofurazone and Metronidazole.agt; My smaller Flowerhorn has good shape and coloration but has no head. Even the special FLOWERHORN foods have not helped much. Will feeding it on shrimp meat help in the enlargement of hump? elt;The large hump on the forehead of Flowerhorns is a fat storage device. It is usually larger in males but I guess some females could have it too. The difference between the two could just be heredity.-Chuckhgt;
