Hi all,

I was hoping you could please have a look at these photos and try and guess the sexes please. I know they aren't the best photos but my camera & lighting in my place sucks.
The 134 are all around 7.5-8cm and about 16 months old.
The 397 are the same age but vary from 7-9cm.
Thanks so much

im no good with 134s cause you can never be certain IMHO. your 397s look to me on the far right a female far left male middle too small.

just my opinion:)

Thank you all. Is sexing the 397 the same as 134? How do I tell? That's good if I have a pair.
Now I just need to swap the male with someone as they might be related as I bought them at fry age.

imo 134's i never say definately because they all get fat!
youll be able to easily distinguish m & f once of age by papilla and obviously the males get a hairy back end just my opinion:)

Hi everyone,

I have some new fish and better photos. Ken Duncan's job is still safe haha
I'd love your opinions. Sizes are head to end of tail.
Do the long gill spikes mean male like in 134's?
Thanks heaps!:clap:

FISH ONE - 10cm







FISH TWO - 9cm











FISH THREE - 7cm







FISH FOUR - 5.5cm







FISH FIVE - 8cm

I think I'll just have to wait a bit & see what happens.
Hopefully they don't all end up being males
