hi nice looking fish, however what size is it, looks way to small to judge on sex. Any chance of a better close up from top and side ? cheers jk :thumbup:

Not the greatest at sexing those but looks female to me.

no idea has elongated head like a male but its very narrow like a female... males tend to have big boof heads
nothing to compare it to makes it hard... if you had a group of them and both sexes you can then pick male/female traits out a lot easier...
