This group was bought about 18 months ago. The smallest were 8 months old and the largest a year old so they are approx 2 and 2.5 years old respctively. The smallest are just over 2" TL

Hope the pics are clear enough and please excuse my rubbish paintshop numbering :whistle:

they are still small, but i'd hazard a guess that fish 3 is female, 4 and 5 almost certainly male.
1 and 2 aren't really clear enough to tell but i'd say they were probably male

Thanks for the opinions guys, I thought it was a bit young for them but as I wanted to re-arrange their tank I took them all out of the tank for the first time since having them and thought it worth doing some pics :)

I'll pluck up the courage to do it again in 6 months time and see if they are showing their differences by then :D

nice

Yep,
Nice group of fish Jo. I got my F1's at around 12 month old 18 months ago, making them around 2 and a half when they spawned for the first time. They can surprise us at times!

Hope the L066 and L144 are doing O.K.

Cheers,
Mark.
