[melissadotson]

i have 5 small bala sharks. they are about 2 1/2 to 3 inch. when they are this size how can you tell which sex they are? or can you tell at this size? just wondering...

the female will have a slightly fuller belly according to some websites.

and other than that its hard to determine.

But these are babies. You can't reliably sex them until maturity, when they're a foot long.
