My Flowerhorns

[rED O]

I took 80 pictures, and only 5 were decent. Its very hard to take a picture of a fish that never is still and always moving around.

[Carmine]

Nice!!!

What tank are they? And are they together?

Noooooo, flowerhorns will KILL any take mate. They have to be bred threw a divider. Flowerhorns can have tank mates, but there are a only a few that they could be compatible with. I have had a 7'' flower, and he was aggressive. i threw him in with everything in my big tank. But all the fish were double his size and there was lots of swimming space. I have also seen pairs breed without the divider. But, mine are both in separate 60 gallons.

Ugh, my photos got cut off

[~RuSh~]

Is that first one the Thai silk? He looks nice from what I can tell. What's up with the blue coloration? Lighting?

[LowCel]

The back half of your fish look really nice, I can only imagine how the front half looks.

Yes, there is one blue bulb, but that blue is his actual color. They are one of my favorite flowerhorns. This guy is a high quality thai silk that was imported from thailand. I can't wait till he is full grown. I am hoping that he will turn out like this, and its looking like he might

Working on fixing pictures. I am not sure why they are cut out.

It's a result of the upgrade. The new server doesn't 'adjust' to picture sizes, it just cuts them off. When posting pics, you need to resize them if they are extra large, or this will happen everytime. Something to keep in mind for POTM as well Dustin.

If you can get some better quality pics, I'd love to use that guy in my Hybrid article. I think I PM'd you about it earlier, but I may have forgotten.

I did reply to your PM earlier. I will try again later to get a picture for you. When do you need it by?

[~RuSh~]

No specific timeline really. I'm waiting on some pics from T as well. Whenever you get a chance would be great. Pics of both flowerhorns would be nice.

-- I never did get your PM. Could be a hiccup in the server when Kmuda was doing a bunch of work. No biggie.

I noticed that the new site software doesn't display pics the way the old one did.
If you go full screen with your browser you see the whole pic if you monitor is large enough.

[Kmuda]

The old software allowed the photo to scroll off the screen and provided scrollbars, which was annoying by itself. The new one does not, which is also annoying. It's one of the issues with being in frameless mode, but we have to be in frameless for google to be able to index the threads.

Scale pics back to 800x600 and they should be fine. I've set up one of my photobucket albums (the one I post from) to upload pics as 800x600, so no extra steps.

EDIT... Confirmed 800x600 when uploaded to Photobucket.

On my 17" monitor at work his mouth is still cut off.

[Kmuda]

I'll work on it. It's not the size of your monitor that matters, it's the resolution. What resolution are you?

1024x768?

And we managed to totally hijack Red O's Flowerhorn thread.

Yep, 1024x768. As for the hijack, you are safe but I'm not so sure about me. From what I understand peon's shouldn't hijack a mod's (or the potm mc) thread.

rED O, According to Taiwanese tradition, Flowerhorns increase your luck with Geomancy & Feng shui.

The markings of the Flowerhorn cichlid are also very important from a Feng Shui point of view. If the marking resemble a desirable Chinese letter, the Flowerhorn cichlid becomes very valuable. A woman who won 1 million dollars at the lottery claimed that she had played on the number displayed on her Flowerhorn cichlid ..." http://www.aquaticcommunity.com/cichlid/flowerhorn.php. See also http://www.flowerhorncraze.com/index.php?showtopic=43104 for a gazillion pics

Seeing how I'm the messenger, if you strike it big my cut is a modest 15%.
