Believed to be a hybrid between Amphilophus citrinellus and
Amphilophus trimaculatum first developed in Malaysia around
1996. Some claim that the hybrid has since been crossed with the
"Giant Blood Parrot" -- a hybrid of its own. Hence the Flower Horn
is a completely artificial fish and it lacks a bonified scientific name.
SIZE: To 12" (30 cm)
HAB: Originally Central America, but now captive bred in Asia.
Amphilophus citrinellus - Southern Mexico, Nicaragua
(lakes-Nicaragua, Managua, and Xiloa; Rio San Juan), Honduras,
Costa Rica (Costa Rica River and Cuba River). Amphilophus
trimaculatum Southern Mexico & Guatemala (Chiapas and
Huamuchal). |
