Re: Super Red Texas
That's not a Flowerhorn is it?????Comment

Re: Super Red Texas
No it's not a F-Horn. It's a hybrid....Texas (Carpintas) X Red Devil.
Clearly 1 of my dream fish....WITHOUT A DOUBT :emtthumbs:Comment

Re: Super Red Texas
Well are they that hard to get to breed??? Both fish are readily available in most LFS's.Comment

Re: Super Red Texas
Yes and no. I actually have both...matter of fact, I have a Red Texas female, but she doesn't have the coloration and the really intense markings (pearls) like Michael's has. And that's the thing w/ that fish...you have a 1 in 10 maybe 20 chance that yours will come out lookin' like his. Yours chances are really closer to seldom than occassionally.Comment

Re: Super Red Texas
They are grouped somewhat in the same "class" as F-Horns b/c they are bred for the intense color/pearls. But we can only manipulate genetics so far ya know....
With F-Horns, you have so much more lead way b/c several diff. fish are used to create F-Horns. But w/ Red Texas, it's only a Green Texas (Carpintas) and a Red Devil....and I think the male has to be a Texas and the female a RD b/c it increases the chances of it coming out like Mike's.Comment

Re: Super Red Texas
What do the F-Horns come from? I knew they were hybrids but between what two fish?Comment

Re: Super Red Texas
Okay, wait. I'm not saying I'm not interested in this discussion - I am, actually. But could someone maybe start another thread, just so we can keep this one about Michael's sale? Thanks."Millennium hand and shrimp!"Comment

Re: Super Red Texas
Thanks everyone for comments on my fish. My job is field service engineer and I travel a few time in a month. I do not have much time to take care all my fish so I have to sale a few. So far, he is the last one that I have to sale. By the way, there are many Red texas, but not this deep red and full pearl like this. Who care whether it is a flowerhorn or not, flowerhorn is a hybrid cichlid and so this one. He has great quality fish that it is hard from a local fish store. I have know many friend from oversee and I should not have a problem to find another one like this SRT. He is now with a parrot fish and get along very well for sure. If anyone interesting to buy then let me know. I might let the price down a little for a fish fan. Thanks and Cheer everyone.
