General Care: Sexing your flowerhorn
Sexing your flowerhorn:
- It’s always better to vent to sex your Flowerhorns but a here is rough idea without removing from the water
Female:
- Not 100% tell tail sign but a black mark on dorsal fin most likely indicates female and lack of kok growth (low quality male flowerhorn will most likely not grow kok also) a higher angle on dorsal fins (please see pics to explain better)
Male:
- No black mark on the dorsal indicates male but please note females can suddenly develop a dorsal mark after laying or being put next to a male, also kok from a young age indicates male generally, Some females do develop kok but it most likely to come later on in life then males kok also some male fh may grow a kok later on in life, kamfa and malau may also take longer to get a kok or large kok, there fins have a lower angle with there dorsal fins
