Hey guys :)
I've scanned the threads to try & decide whether or not my newest find is actually a real trimac or an el crapo flowerhorn...

...I THINK it's a trimac...it's about 3 1/2 inches (not including the tail)...
Any opinions?
...for the record, he was $5...

Could be a trimac. Impossible to tell for sure without knowing the source. Looks more like one than most of the trimachorms posted as the spotting is right. Never know though Jenni. Tell you what We will call this one a definate trimac, just for kicks!

thanks for the replies :)
He's more greenish...has a very faint hue of pink around the chest area...
Eric (Bodrock) says he believes it to be a trimac...not a flowerhorn...said the same thing Rudy did, as the spotting was correct...
Either way, he's a cutie & glad I picked him up (he's my birthday present to me:) )
...though I'll need a bigger tank...

(ps...found a 40 breeder in the trash..has a crack, put I'm planning on a glass patch)
