Hello! So I just acquired some diamond tetras from the local fish shop. They all looked exactly the same, they all definitely look like females. I know the difference in males and females from looking at photos online; however, I was just wondering if perhaps the males don't show their characteristics (longer fins, more color, more diamond scales) until they are much older? I know both male and female take time to develop the diamonds. But if the males show their other characteristics right off the bat, I have all females, and am kind of sad, I want some males. All the diamonds at the shop looked like females.
Thanks for any help!
