FlowerHorn Fish Care & Information - Flower Horn Fish
My Kok deflates when stressed too
We never feed our Flowerhorn live food, just pellets and freeze dried foods. He’s doing fine and growing like crazy.
every time I bring a lady home, she impressed by my kok
same....same.. heh
I like this comment tho
Lmaooo
I bet she is
🤣🤣🤣
Walk into the club like what's up I've got a big kok
+Phoenix Pyrope 😂
Comment of the year right there
That's a pretty impressive Kok for a fish
TheEpicNub haha
Mine is bigger
👍
nice Kok bro
What a big beautiful kok
lol'd at KOK like i was 12. had no idea. lmao
+Kowboy Santos
Bruh....i have to narrate this.. how did you think I feel 😂👌
lmao 🤣 👍🏼
Fabulous fish!
Ive been eating live foods but kok still small
+JAY YOCKEL 😂😂😂😂
Maybe your FH is a female. And there are some type that FH doesn't really grow its kok
Micaela Carreon He said I've been eating live foods. He's not talking about a fish, he's making a joke about growing his own "kok".
JAY YOCKEL wat can i feed for my 1month flowerhorn to get colour and hump
LMAOOOOOOOOOOOO
3:42
Me: come on you're more mature than this
Also me: hehehehehehe kok
Great video! I have a female red dragon and I feed mine mostly floating cichlid pellets and freeze dried krill. I want to start feeding live, but I’m honestly not sure what kind of fish I want to feed here. I definitely don’t wanna feed her goldfish
I’ve heard that convicts, arowanas, and jewel cichlids do well with them.
Especially convicts since convicts can be mental as well.
Well done, agree with everything. I do think gravel is okay.
Very nice FH he looks amazing. 👌
Wonderful information.....We should feed our flower horn just twice a day and that's good for their health rather feeding 3 to 4 times a day :)
Got my first flowerhorn thanks for the info
Awesome!!! Any update?
Bought one for $5...hates my geophagus...doesn't care about my saddled bichir or Bolivian Rams... absolutely LOVES earthworms!!!
It's *KOK*
L Roses your beautiful
Tyree Wells you’re*
A big kok isn't everything!
Thanks for that information, I’m looking to purchase my 1st. FlowerHorn.
If you have a juvenile, at what age should it be transferred to a 75+ gallon tank? I have an empty 40 gallon breeder, and I am interested into getting one.
Great looking Flowerhorn!
I wanted this until:
No Gravel
No decorations
No other fish
I am sad now
+Paws Pup
You can get away with some sand...and If you keep it with other fish as a fry you might be able to keep it with other large fish🤗
Those are suggestions. You can have minimal deco and plants. Let your fish decide what they are comfy with.
It's more of a guideline not the rule. Experiment 🍺
Myaquariuminfo probably not tho 🤣
nice straight to the point video. nice.
Great video, thanks for the info and for the foods that I should feed to my FH
hikari frozen foods defnitely but most of all i recommend live feeder fish that you have kept healthy for a month, they are the absolute best for flowerhornfish!Sorry for the late reply as i have been on vacation, but i hope this helps! -Gus
Looks like mine but mine has tons of pearls, almost looks like a thai silk but some red towards front and has a flower line down body but it's faded as he's grown and pearls have taken over to point the fish looks blue/platinum
I’ve been kind of thing about getting one myself. I’m glad I watch your video because I didn’t know if they need to be alone or not. I definitely didn’t know they needed next to nothing in there tank. I know they have a great personality ! Thanks for the info
just subscribed thankyou for the tuos and advice me and my papa were having trouble. you have a beatiful fish plese continue to treat her it right
ps sorry for the it idk if its a boy or girl
+Cool Bird
Wow ! Thank you very much and your support is much appreciated(:
My flowerhorns' cok is MASSIVE compared to his body, but his color is super lack luster, almost pale. No tank mates, 75 gallon+.... Mix of food - pellets, baby guppies, dried worms, live wax worms. His top, bottom and tale fins are super long. He appears pale but behaves super interested in me and his tank. What gives with his colors? Thanks Gus!
What a huge KOK
Luv it
These comments are GOLD
Ohh myy Kok
I need a help pls my flowerhorn hump has got flattened what can I do to recover
My FH eats like a monster, I basically have to clean his tank daily with the mini grav vac... I've never seen a fish shit so often!
You need a stronger filter! Lol I had the same issue, I was using a 100 gallon HOB filter....to no avail. A strong external canister filter will get the job done👍
Can they live in tap water or need special additives?
Nice KOK!!
HI Gus.... excellent video. This fellow is really stunning! =D I have a few little fish in Humphrey's tank at all times. So far he hasn't caught one yet. I also have a Giant Raphael catfish in with him. He's nocturnal and only comes out at night with Humphrey is sleeping. Then he cleans up the mess. =D
+DebTim A CANADIAN Girl
I noticed them, the small yellow cichlids right? (: I didn't notice the catfish?:0
I had a pleco and have a crayfish with Freddy and at night I would see the other two come out heh. But I gave the pleco away because Freddy tore all the plecos fins):
Thanks for the info!
Sir what type of flowerhorn is in the video?
I wanna know who thought naming the bumps “kok” was a good idea… They deserve a high five🤣
You can keep some other fish with flower horns if your tank is at least 75 gallons so
I have a flower horn thai silk
I bought it since april 2017 and know he is still desame
They do not need a 75 gallon. They are perfectly fine in a 45 or a 55. If they are by themselves they be just fine in a smaller tank...
Super fish
Why tf is my flowerhorn swimming sideways once a while
Back at it again with a great video!✌🏻
Your flowerhorn has a nice KOK
Nice video with great information. I subscribed for future videos so keep them coming.
Can FH be house with Airowana? Would there be any fight if they're almost same size?
very good video ,here my Fh want to share
Thanks!! Share your flowerhorn with me on Instagram!
Why has mine got a small kok? Asking for a friend......
+adam willoughby
Sometimes it's just genetics. But it's diet plays a big role too. What are you feeding it?
I got my first flowerhorn today. It's a little baby maybe 2 months. It doesn't have a large kok like it's not even noticable.
DarterGaming late replying you might know by now they don't start having one until about four inchs and that's if it's a male females can get them usually not. I've seen males that have very small ones.
No comment. It was a good one, too! xD
Good video. But when he said “his kok” I fell off my chair
Is there a way to tell the male from female?
Yes by looking at their reproductive tube underneath. Pointy and falling back is a girl and more tubish like is a boy
@@myaquariuminfo Thank you
The John Holmes of Flowerporn... horn
Love this video man I love my Flower horn. Never had any feeders for my fish. You have a sub here
+Deon 0026
Thanks for the kind words buddy! I'm working on tons of Flowerhorn vids and even a book so I hope you stay tuned!
Myaquariuminfo right on man
Deon 0026 If you start using feeders, avoid gold fish and rosy minnows. They prevent fish from adsorbing vitamins properly. Also mealworms and super worms are bad for young fish if fed to often, because their exoskeletons can cause a blockage and they are high in fat.
XxXMidnightblackXxX very interesting
*actual question* Is that "horn" entirely filled with air or is it solid? If it's filled with air, does it inflate when you puncture a hole in it with a pushpin? Because I have the strange need to do that
😂😂😂😂😂
Are males more agressive than females
Can you make a video on care for violet gobies? (Dragon fish)
+YaBoiRaven V.
Yeah, I had one for a while but it didn't last. It was from Wal-Mart
Myaquariuminfo why graphic?
+Christian Swogger
At the end I feed him a few live minnows.
Some people are sensitive to that.
Also, the last fish get his head torn open and his eyeball sticks out....i give him feeders all the time, but when I saw that I was like woah...
So I thought I should give a little bit of a warning in case anyone who watches is sensitive.
Myaquariuminfo good idea. Great video if you could make a video on picking a quality flowerhorn Fry I would really appreciate it I am going to get one or two tomorrow
+Christian Swogger
Im going to be focusing a lot on the Flower horn, stay tuned (:
Awesome! Keep me updated;;
so i have to eat frozen and live food to get a big kok
now finally some tells me I've been doing it wrong for 20 years at least i can carry 4pints of beer in one hand
can you do a video about their breeding? . i'm planning to investe in it cause they're quiet expensive in here
Temperatura en grados ?
Papilla casera ?
Hi, I currently have the Aquaclear 70 power filter for my 55 gallon tank. What should be the turnover rate ?
That fish is too damn picky
What was graphic about it?
dam didnt know you owned one
+Zer0cool NINJA88
My main fish (:
Hello...meri flowerhorn full whute ho gayi hai aur 2 din se feed bhi nahi le rahi hai plz help me...main kaise usko thik karu
I asked my flowerhorn with three other fish and they were swordtails and Molly another flowerhorn
I have a flowerhorn. it is ill. and now it condition is doing more breathing and live on bottom side of tank what I do please help me
+shuvam shrivastava
Warm temperature to 86 and feed it only live foods like live worms
I got em with Oscars
can we feed with driedworms
Is that a crayfish I see in that tank?
+JR Galore
Yes, good eye!
I needed something to help clean the tank in between siphoning, so I placed a pleco and a Cray in there. But he tore all the plecos fins ):
The crayfish hides in the rocks, and comes out to scavenge left overs at night. Sometimes he catches the feeder fish:0
@Myaquariuminfo if a pleco harassed a flowerhorn, would that make it a kok sucker?
It hasn't been officially classified but experts state yes 🤓
Just about to get a SRD x zz pearl flowerhorn
my fish is acting very dull it's one corner near the air filter but whatever is given to him he eats, kindly suggest what should b done doing 30% water change daily.
will fresh frozen foods be okay for live foods? I have no problem feeding live foods but I don't know where to get live foods.
+Tyson's Fishing And Camping
Try frozen beefheart, frozen bloodwormd, frozen mysis shrimp and brine shrimp is what I use👌
ok will do, thanks!
Do you know anything about head twitching of flowerhorn is it a sign of disease and needs immediate medication? Please give me advice if you mind?
hi! just got to your comment; head twitching can be a sign of stress. check your temperature, it should be 79-86 f.i would also check your water. sorry for the late response, but keep me updated!
Ok thanks i will
Is it fresh or salt water?
Freshwater🙌
Myaquariuminfo thank!I got my first flowerhorn it’s a fry still.It’s very shy any tips to get it more confident?
That's so cool! Congratulations! Yes, water changes every week and feed it live foods 👌
Myaquariuminfo what live food can I feed a fry flowerhorn
Dude we can put two Flowerhorn in single tank???
I wouldn't advise it... Sometimes they're bred together and catch love in large groups but most of the time they are too aggressive.
Ok dude thanks for sharing
How much the small one
My flowerhorn changed colors you can see it on my page and I have a jag and a gar
E Philly that's normal if it's a juvenile
Any reason y a regular red dragon female don't show a lot of color even at 5 in she show a lot of blue m black but no red
+Raphael Fish
Does it have black vertical lines?
So I can get away with one in a 55 gallon ?
"injure their koks" ha
cool video
+COOPER'S CICHILDS
Thanks😊👍
Are there koks to impress lady's in the wild?
If only humans worked like that....OH SHIT WAIT
Tell something my flowerhorn kok is so small
How does the Crayfish do with Flowerhorn?
Not good. Crayfish will get eaten. Can survive (possibly) with 100 coverage at the bottom ( only spaces to crawl through and hide) but that's no life for a pet..
Tony Manfredi crawfish would definantly die.
Why is my FH has small kok??
a lot of it has to do with it's genetics, however; its diet plays a big role too. i recommend live foods. i will be posting flowerhorn advice, stop by and chek it out soon!Sorry for the late reply as i have been on vacation, but i hope this helps! -Gus
@@myaquariuminfo what live food is good for fh?
Flower horn fish notice every thang if u don't pay it no mind in give it wat u think is right I would eat it too but pellets are best for them I just search the feeder fish can cuz them not to progress it right which is kinder sad it also say u have to mix up food to help push that goldfish down in its stomach pellets ppl no arguemeant here just a lot of stuff to do to feed one fish
+Raphael Fish
I don't trust online blogs. Too much made up stuff. I only rely on factual Info from reliable sources. I recommend "the aquarium encyclopedia" by Gina Sandford .
Because a dry food only diet is really bad for fish.
And the organs of fish don't need "help" digesting fish?... that's what they've eaten for millions of years.
why are all the comments about KOKS?????
How long can a Flowerhorn live in a 50 gallon tank?
2yeara then it will need a 75
Sorry for the late reply, (only able to do weekly replies due to work this month)
What size tank is the flowerhorn in
+Kasey Repichowski
Earlier videos he was in a 10 as a juvenile, In this video he's in a 20 and by the next video he'll be in a 40 and when he gets 8 inches help end up in a 75.
Myaquariuminfo so what's the minimum tank size you would recommend keeping a full grown one in
+Kasey Repichowski 75 gallons 👍😏
Kasey Repichowski he says it right in the video with 75 gallons it's stated all over the Internet
Minimum Tank Size = ???
+Paws Pup
Depends on what size, full grown I'd recommend 75 gallons but you can get away with a 50 gallon
I mean some of what you said just isn't true, flowerhorns don't 'need' live food to be successful nor do they 'need' a 75gal to be happy. Yes in a perfect world everyone could have 75 gal tanks and feed live food everyday but that's just not reality. A flowerhorn will be fine in a 55gal and can live a full happy life eating a variety of pellet foods.
+Adam Reuben
The ammonia produced by the diet of the Flowerhorn calls for as much dilution as possible. This is why ba 75 would work far better than a 50.
You absolutely do need live food in order to successfully keep the Flowerhorn. The Flowerhorn has a short digestive system in order to process high fat and protein meals. The fish bred for the Flowerhorn have been eating live fish and other creatures for thousands of years.... keeping this fish in an aquarium doesn't mean you can all off a sudden feed it only dry food. Any experienced aquarist will tell you that a dry food only diet is bad for your fish, so I don't know where you're getting your information, but I highly suggest NOT using your opinion or fish forums and stick to writings by professionals and experts.
Some have too huge of a KOK lol.. lord I can't even talk about it. Why the hell did whoever name it a KOK? how about head bump or hump or fish afro? I like them but not when its so big it looks like a 70s afro. They are cool though I never heard of these till like 4 months ago.
It can make them sick the one I've got it don't pay any part of fish cuz it know they aren't suppose to they say they're specail fish but I know my real God it better so it would on make sense y she won't eat
+Raphael Fish
That sentence doesn't make sense...but it's because you're supposed to keep feeder fish healthy for a month before feeding.
what if it the flower horns sack in its head is really big
+The Cr0w
Some keepers prefer it👍
Myaquariuminfo but what does it mean?
+The Cr0w
Nothing, it's just a trait that is bred. Like some fish are bred to have super long fins
Myaquariuminfo ok that makes sense thanks
+The Cr0w 😉👍
Some might have 2 Koks other dont even have any
Yes cok ,C O K
