when my uncle had his, he had a pair in a 175 gallon long with some rainbow fishes,neons,golden sevneral,and a pelco.

how they got along with the ranibows and neons

anyway he got rid of them b/c they were just too aggressive, but i would guess that it is very sim to a parrot fish. large tank, a few rocks, slate, plants, good food.

thanx for the link,it was great.your uncle was lucky to have his flowerhorns in with other fish.the guy i got mine from had three together,and the one i own killed the other two,(they can be very ive read).when i give him feeders he goes nuts and godhelp the feeder,i can see that he is really aggresive,thats why i decided not to try any other fish with him,he only has three teeth but they are like needles...ouch.he has even started to attack my magnetic glass cleaner.
