eyeonforever Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 I saw a list of possible tank mates for a flowerhorn. Which one would you get and why? Jack Dempsey Oscars Blood Parrots Tiger barbs Green Severum Green Terror Ancara Texas cichlid I want them to grow up together and not pick on each other for size difference. I've heard that some of these fish will interact with people which would be great and would defintely be the winner? What do you think? Or would some other fish be better?

Struggle Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 My son and daughter-in-law have a flowerhorn and nothing else can be in the tank with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shkote Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 My Flowerhorn is a mean, space greedy, territorial monster. I can't imagine anything living peacefully with him. He doesn't even love the idea of sharing his space with a filter and heater and attacks them daily. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puffandstuff Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 While some fish can work, like the list above. I've kept flowerhorn, and while it can be done, the fish display much much nicer alone. There's no competition for food, sparring to mark them up etc. You can grow a very attractive fish alone. Unless you really want to have tankmates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishmonger_X Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Nothing. The Flowerhorn will probably kill anything...... it's a one tank kind of fish.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
