Well thank you all. I have six fry in a 10 gal tank, and so far so
good. usually the fry are a swarm of maybe over a thousand. but this
time the batch was smaller. in the end i still have six. i'm feeding
the wardley's fry food, and baby brine shrimp. this whole thing kinda
sucks because i can find very little info online about their breeding.
and the people in the pet stores are worse for flower horn info.
the parthenogenathingy is intersting. and will be looked at further.
really i'd like to contact someone in japan where these things are
very popular. but i can't find any routes online to ask them either.


As far as I am aware the exact origin of the Flower Horn is a secret known
only to it's original breeder. The thing is a multi species hybrid and as
such will be a total genetic mess anyway.
