Can anybody give me insight. I got them both from the same store under the same name.
This is the suspected female.
This is the suspected male.
The "male" is almost 2x the size of the female and is still lacking the full stripe through "his" eyes and the dark dorsal fin marking. I suspect the second to be male since it has extensions on his tail. The female has no extensions but she is really bossing the male around. She has been in the tank longer and has claimed her territory.
My questions are:
1. Are my suspicions correct about the sexes?
2. Is the male even the same species?
3. Are there any chances they will pair up?
4. Will the female stop pestering the male?
Thanks for the help.
