ive got 4 juvanile jags and 1 is a lighter colour does this meens its the male or the dominate fish in the tank its the biggest of them all so does this give me an indication of its sex???
Keep an eye on them. IME a trained eye will eventually spot differences beyond coloring and pattern. With twenty years of fish keeping under your belt, the sex will become apparent after they hit 3".

yep sure is isnt it
I don't mean to hijack this thread but since I have the same question I figured I'd put it here instead of starting a new topic. Here's some pics (sorry, blurry but my batteries died before I could get any good pics) of my Jag. It is aprox. 5" in total length. I was just wondering if anyone could tell if its a male or female. Thanks
