Got my female con

[canucksfan1]

Well i finally picked up my female con from a pet cetera in vancouver, brought it back home and got it all set up in a 10 gallon tank with a few feeder whiteclouds (it will be going in the 23 with my male con when it gets bigger it's only 3/4 of an inch right now, the other is 2"). But anyway my question is that if it's that small can it be holding eggs cuz it has gotten really fat and and i haven't been feeding it too much?? Anyway just curious.

Cons can breed when there very small. I dont know about 3/4 of an inch but maybe.

how do you tell the males apart from the females? everyone says the females have some red on them. I have five babys all less then 2 inches and i still cant tell the females from the males?
