What sex are my L97?

Post by Simon86 »

Hello

I have 3 Pseudacanthicus sp. L97 and I'm wondering what sex they are. They are 6 - 8" in size.
Thanks in advance.

I'm leaning towards male.

How long have you had them? Maybe after a few months of feeding and clean water they will show differently.

Just a guess, by no means an expert here

Good luck

Thanks

Maybe (I hope) #3 is female. Any other opinions?
I had them in my parents basement for the last 6 months, since I'v been traveling around.
So now I've moved them to my apartment and they'll get cleaner water and more food :-)

I think too 3rd female. 1st and 2nd male.
