Flowerhorn for sale





This is Love's flowerhorn, he got it when it was a tiny fish, like when it was a fraction of this size, for $8, 4 months ago. He wanted a male but all the flowerhorns were too young to be able to tell their gender, so he just picked any one that looked nice and prayed hard it was a male.

Love pumped the fish and fed it good food, all the humpy head pellets and hikari brand kind of food. And also with frozen bloodworms and everything. He did water change for his fish every 3 days. The fish's name is Robert.

There was just a sudden obsession when he saw the baby flowerhorns in the fish shop, so he decided to get it. He showered it with tender loving care. Robert grew very fast and soon he was transferred to a bigger tank, where Love hoped that the hump on his head would grow soon, being fed humpy head pellets and all.

Love noticed a white thing coming out from Robert's anus and decided to research about it online. Some people said it was a female but he didnt believe them. They say to check if its a female is to squeeze the anus area of Robert to check if that was the eggs, so to confirm if Robert was a female.

We all thought that this would traumatise the fish in some way if we squeezeed it or something, so it has been like that for around 1 month?

Today, Love and Love's cousin decided to check. They squeezed the anus.







Eggs came out. Its not Robert anymore, its Roberta. Love is devastated.

We played sad songs like Dont Cry by Gunz and Roses cause Love looked so sad.

So anyone wants a beautiful healthy female flowerhorn? :)








This is Prince today! I tried folding ketupat with ribbons and Love's cousin tied it on his head. 
















Right now there is a flying cockroach in the living room and everyone is having a great panic except for me and Prince cause Prince is sleeping now (as usual). Going to join the fun :)
