History
The Flowerhorn fish is a completely unnatural fish, a hybrid of hybrids. This makes it a very amazing fish, because with the imbalance in the amount of chromosomes or genetic material in the sex cells of different species, it is able to reproduce. It was produced after meticulous selective breeding by fish breeders in Malaysia.
The common belief is that the Flowerhorn fish is a hybrid of hybrids, produced after meticulous selective breeding by fish breeders in Malaysia. A hybrid of two cichlids, Amphilophus Trimaculatum and Amphilophus Citrinellus, was cross-bred with the "Giant Blood Parrot", a hybrid of its own, to produce the Flowerhorn Fish.
Some claim however that The Flowerhorn was actually a cichlid by itself that once lived in the wild, and was only artificially cross-bred with other species to improve its quality. There is some controversy over the origins of this fish.
However, we do know that the current breeds sold in aquarium shops are no longer totally natural, and it has thus been denied of a proper scientific name.

History and Flowerhorn Strains Studies just want to share to everyonenakuha ko sa FLOWERHORN CRAZE AT WIKIPEDIAThe origin of flowerhornIn 1993 -Malaysians admired fishes with protruding head, known as Karoi, in the western part of Malaysia, also known as warship. In Taiwan, this fish has a slight protruding forehead and long tail, and is widely accepted in the Chinese society which brings luck in geomancy.In 1994 - The import of Red Devil also known as human face and Blood Parrot from Taiwan to Malaysia mark the birth of flowerhorn.In 1995 - With the introduction of 1994 birth of flowerhorn this has lead to the blood parrot being crossbreed with the Human Face Red God of Fortune which produced a new species called five-colors god of fortune. With its beautiful colors, it has brought an overwhelming response.In 1998 - It has further improved with the import of seven-colors blue fiery mouth, from South America, known as Greenish Gold Tiger and Jin Gang Blood Parrot from Taiwan. This crossbreeding was a success, leading to the first generation of flowerhorns named Hua Luo Han which is then followed by subsequent flowerhorn developments.In 1998 It has further improved with the import of seven-colours blue fiery mouth, from South America, known as Greenish Gold Tiger and Jin Gang Parrot from Taiwan. History and Flowerhorn this crossbreeding was a success, leading to the first generation of flowerhorns, named Hua Luo Han which is then followed by subsequent flowerhorn developments. The flowerhorn arena still continues till today.Arrival In the US.When flowerhorn first arrived there were really only 2 breeds of these fish for distribution, flowerhorn and jks. Flowerhorn came in 2 varieties those with pearls and those with out. Jks also had two varieties, those that faded and those that didn't. With the flowerhorns, the ones w/o pearls were quickly over taken by those with pearls, so then it became pearl scale flowerhorn (zhen zhou). With the jks the unfaded ones developed nice golden skin over the flowerhorns grey skin.So at 1999 there were 4 strains of flowerhorn hitting the American market, regular flowerhorn, pearl scale flowerhorn, golden flowerhorn, and jks. there were so many breeders that these 4 strains had so many different names and minor variations, that names became a joke. No importer wanted to hear a name but rather look at the fish. Knowing this the breeders and exporters started line breeding going for better quality traits and so fourth. The pearl scale flowerhorn beat out regular flowerhorn and became ZZsAbout now its 2000-2001 and kamfa hit the scene. These were hybrids of any type of flowerhorn crossed with any vieja or parrot. These guys brought on some new traits people became interested with. Short mouths, tail wrap, sucked in eyes, and of course bigger koks. seeing this those guys who had the GMs began to line breed there fish to have similar traits. Those who had the ZZs wanted to completely dominate the market and began line breeding there fish to develop faster and become more colorful. This meant that they could have a fish that could compete with the kamfa strains.Flowerhorn Strains Studies
