  • I ask a couple of experts about flower horn cichlids, as I have never kept them, and many people ask me about their care. Learn about tank size, feeding, care, and more about flower horn cichlids.

      Hey guys. Great info. Just want to make sure I heard you correctly. Is a 60 gallon cube going to alright for a solo pet?

    • @MichiganTropicals
      @MichiganTropicals 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      @kppriest we use cubes for grooming them. A 60 gallon cube would be fine for a little while but if your keeping it as a pet I would suggest a little larger and less cube, like a standard 75 should work well.

    Got 2 flowerhorns a few months back for $10.00, they where super tiny at the time but he showed us the parents and told us no guarantees how they will grow, we never expected show quality anyways because they are just for us, but they are growing beautifully and atleast on the male the hump is growing nicely.

    At 5:23 in the video when it shows the flower horn in the top left corner, there is something floating when I owned my flower horn and it passed away. I noticed the same thing floating in the tank is it’s just a common thing with flower horns or is that some kind of parasite it’s like a little white string floating around almost like a worm like ?????

  • @boneheadfish7893
    @boneheadfish7893 ปีที่แล้ว

    Flowerhorns are one of my favorite fish, a true water puppy. Mine will come and run into my hand when I’m cleaning his tank until I rub his nuchal. They have a lot of similarities in care requirements to an Oscar with temps closer to 84-86*F being more optimal. They are not quite as resilient to illness as an Oscar either but much better personalities.

    I have a question, so I have a 55g tank and seeing people say it’s way too small for 1 singular male Flowerhorn, he’s been in it for around a year now, is 55 gallon okay? He seems fine in it.. I’m just scared because I cannot get another tank for him as we have no room..

    Flowerhorns have always had my heart, but I have a hard time wanting to keep a single fish in a tank. Maybe when my adventures with Starry Nights come to a close, I might be a bit more prepared.

  • @516chris
    @516chris ปีที่แล้ว

    The guy says in the video that they should be in around a 75 gallon tank if you’re keeping them I’m just wondering also said that they’re in a 30 gallon tank at that moment is that only because they are at the show will they be putting the flower horn in a bigger tank when when thwy get back home or is that just the tank that it lives in throughout its life???

    One main thing I learned about my flowerhorn was that he was like a "dog." A very mean one... Nonetheless, he knew who I was and reacted to me when I was nearby.
    & He clearly did not like anyone else lol.
    A ton of personality.

  • @audrameyer9558
    @audrameyer9558 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Thank you for highlighting this interesting fish. Not gonna lie, I did not like them initially. The "kok" on their noggin was so odd to me. After seeing them more and watching their behavior, my opinion has changed. They are quirky and funny. They act a little like Oscar's when interacting with their owners. It's cute.

      It really depends on how the fish look bro. If you really like it and it looks way better than the 30-40 flowerhorn. You probably didn't get ripped off. Also if you get it from a famous groomer they might sell at a higher premium too.
