| How Should I Pick My Flowerhorn? |
| Flowerhorn are judged by many different factors because no two are alike. Factors such as the redness of the eye, which should be like bright fire. The head-hump should be large but not creased. The fins should be long. The body should be wide and full. Finally, the colors should be balanced and bright. This site will attempt to illustrate, with comparative photos, the differences between good Flowerhorns and "great" Flowerhorns. |

| Have Flowerhorns "Come and Gone"? |
| Yes, Flowerhorns are now corrected in terms of price. At one time, because they were new, they went through a phase where they were the "Next Big Thing" and people speculated on them by paying thousands of dollars for a large specimen. Now, you can enjoy fine Flowerhorns for about the same price as any other finely bred, rare, specimen fish. Without the 'inflated' value boasted by Flowerhorns in the late nineties. |

| What's So "Fun" About Flowerhorns? |
| I have a Flowerhorn in my office named Bebe. She's a cutie, about 10 inches long, fat, with gorgeous color. She's personable, does acrobatics, and she responds to me. We have a relationship as I am her company and she is my company while I work on my web sites. You don't derive this from a community tank or most other cichlid types. |
