Camera Critters



Camera Critters



This flower horn was taken in People's Park during 72nd day celebration of Davao City. There was an open flower horn show called My Hump 6, battle of champions. They look so cute and stunning swimming in their aquarium. Their hump on the head makes them attractive. I was lucky to take a picture because my cousin had an entry there. This is his entry, he won third place.

I have flower horns at home too. These are my two fishes in a divided aquarium for them to have a free space for swimming. They are territorial and very aggressive, they will not tolerate other fish in their own house. As you can see, they have peculiar marks on the body or chinese character. When it comes to food, they are not picky eaters and they need lots of food which pellet. As you can notice, they are bigger now. I love flower horn fish as my pet because it is easy to maintain and I am always fascinated by just looking at them enjoying swimming.
