Can you please help me that i have already one pair of Gold severum & one pair of Texas in my aquarium and now I want to add one Flower horn in it.

Is it a good decision or not?

Answer -
Dear Muhammad,
First of all be sure to watch out for too much aggression from the Texas cichlids toward the Gold Severum.  From my experience Gold Severums are not as tough and aggressive as Texas cichlids can be and you might have this problem at some time.  As for adding a Flowerhorn, they are supposed to be very territorial and aggressive.  If you still want to risk adding a Flowerhorn be very careful and be prepared to remove him if there starts to be too much fighting between them. Good luck!
Hope this Helps!

Dear Muhammad Rizwan,

Sure! I would love to hear how it all works out. Flowerhorns are lovely fish and Gold Severums are one of my favorite fish also!

Best of luck!

Answer
A big hello Again Mr. Rizwan,
I'm glad to hear the Flowerhorn has adjusted well with the other cichlids. It tends to be that if a newly added cichlid has no aggression after several days, the fish tend to stay that way. But it's always best to keep watch!

I get asked questions frequently about Flowerhorns and their tankmates. If this works out longterm, I will have to keep it in the records in case somebody else asks about the combination!

Feel free to let me know how they are doing if you don't mind!

Best wishes as always,
Karen~
