Anybody know how to determine the sex of lemon tetras? I have one that is really fat and wondered if it was a pregnant female or just a chubby fish?

Lemon Tetra
--FM - deeper body; slighty less body color

This is what I found when I searched for lemon tetra gender on google.

Tetras are egg layers, so she wouldn't be pregnant. She might be egg laden.

The prominent black edge on the anal fin of males is the best differentiation I know.
