IMO, if you're even a bit sure they are hybrid. Feed em to the parents.

Those fry will NOT grow up to be flowerhorns... Use em as food and they wont be wasted.

If you decide to grow them up, don't bring them to a club auction. You may lose your membership! ;)

Enjoy them, or feed them to somefish who wants live food.

That's not what anyone's trying to say. What they are trying to say, that in general, hybrids are unwanted because you don't want to distribute the hybrids to the puplic. That runs the risk of polluting pure genetics out there if one of the hybrids is crossed with a pure and so on until you get fish that look like they are off pure blood but really are not. Then, it becomes impossible for the average person to know whether or not they have a true specie or not.

As long as you keep them to yourself of only give them to people who you know won't distribute them out, then I don't see a problem. I, personally, would only raise one or two out to about an inch and feed the rest if you don't have space for them all

As far as how they look, I have no idea ;).

If people keep buying them, then it's more money for the one selling. Some people put money above the Integrity of the Hobby. My Opinion, Hybrids should be kept off the market. If it happens in your tanks, keep it don't introduce it to someone who will exploit them.
