i had to make a tough choice the other day involving my 2 motoro rays and i decided that i could not afford to get them the bigger tank they will soon need so they are being rehomed at the end of the month
this gives me an empty 5x2x2 so the need for another wet pet was needed
ive had big south and central american cichlids in the past so decided i wanted something that bit different and something that wouldnt need to be moved on when it gets too big...... it didnt take me long before i had decided on a flowerhorn ive always wanted to keep one of these but knowing they are aggressive ive never had the set up for one, so this is my chance.
i also decided that if i was to get one then it had to be quite a special fish and after searching for many days on the net i found out that this fish wasnt going to be cheap in the UK there are very few places that i could find that sells show quality flowerhorns and none were anywhere near to me as usual... a decent 6 inch fish was going to cost between £180-200+ and i didnt want to spend that much on a fish i had never seen so i stumbled accross a guy thats less than 40 miles away thats selling a FH that he imported from Thailand about 7 months ago. after a trip to see it i had to have it and left a deposit on it. ill be picking it up at the end of the month as soon as my rays have been collected. after a bit of haggling i think i got a good deal on this 10 inch stunner
here is the gorgeous AAA super red kamalau flowerhorn that i will be bringing home in a few weeks
