Finally I think my colony is old enough to sex. There was 7 but somehow one must have died as I only found its bones.
I am thinking of keeping 2 males and whatever females I have and I am partial to the more scribbly look and whiter colors.
I have had a guess at sexes and will indicate which ones I am leaning to keeping.
As a temporary measure plec numbers 1,2,3 are in one tank and plecs 4,5 & 6 are in another to cut down any fighting.

What do you think? Do I at least have the sexing right?

Plec 1: 9cm male Most dominant. Thinking of selling it.


Plec 2: 9cm female. Keep.


Plec 3: 8cm male. Thinking of selling it.


Plec 4: 8.5cm male. I like the whiter look and may keep it.


Plec 5: 8cm male. I like his pattern and color as well. May keep him.


Plec 6: 7.5cm female. Keep.

i agree with 2/5/6.

I wouldn't know if you're right about the sexing or not, but if you are right, I think that they're the nicest looking ones.

You have 2 variants of L333, 1,2,3 the goldens ones and 4,5,6 the black and white ones so IMO you are best keep them seperate. If it was me I would keep 1&2 together and 5&6 together and flog the rest.

I am suprised they havent spawned already looking at the females

Goodluck

Well for the moment 1.2.3 are happy in one tank and 4.5.6 are happy in another so I will leave everyone settle after such a tough photo shoot and see what happens.
I am shocking for selling excess plecs off. It rarely happens lol. Its like sellin ya kids!
