Hi, I'm new here (and I'm also new to caring for fishes). I've got 5 zebra danios and I would like to know their genders. Here's what they look like:  (I know... Naming them abcde is so mean hahahaha but I've got no other way) So please let me know who's a male and who's a female. Thank...

I know how to tell the difference between a male and female platy. But this platy confuses me. It swims around like its a male, but that anal fin sometimes moves and spreads open like a female. It's hard to see, but there is a bit of a web between the body and the anal fin. The web isn't as...

Hi, I did post about this bristlenose a couple of weeks ago. I had a hunch it was male when bought as female. Since a couple of weeks ago, his/her bristles have grown even more. And grown on his/her head - which by my understanding would mean it was male but I’m no expert so wanted to check to...

I have an established planted tank with all male Endlers, I bought some more fish today from the same place as before and was reassured they are all males as they don’t keep females. I was a bit confused because the first time I bought the fish the guy spent ages fishing out only males but now...

Hey. I just recently got these two young rams. I tried to look up the difference between male and female and I have an idea, but certain thing are throwing me off. The darker one (I think it is a male) is darker, it has a longer dorsal fin in the front, the bottoms of its pelvic fins are darker...

Hi all, new member so thanks for having me. I am hoping you can help with figuring out the gender of the gouramis we have please as we have 3 and one of them is attacking both a female and a male, but I am unsure if the aggressive one is male or female! We thought it was a female but maybe not...

Are they males or females and can I put them together?

Hello, I’m unsure if these red tuxedo x guppies are male, they’re a few months old but exhibit signs of both sex: As you can see they have stripes on their body and what looks like gonopodiums that they move around (left, right, tucked) as they swim. It’s also hard to see the gravid spot because...

I have two angelfish, I am thinking of getting another but don't know if Im restricted based on their sexes. I have three questions: What are their sexes? If they are M/F, can they breed? And, should I caution myself as to the sex of a third angel fish?

Hey all! My post yesterday was me trying to find a place to purchase a female dwarf gourami to go with my male. I could not find any locally-or so I thought. My school is far away and along the hour drive there is a petco. I went on my way back and the guy there said he had what he thought was a...

Hi I'm just wondering how to tell if a guppy is a male or female? I got two guppies from the pet shop today and was told that they are both males. After taking to a friend she said that The lighter (pink/white) coloured one is a female. Thanks in advance!

Hi, I recently purchased a couple of Dwarf Gourami from my local UK aquarium shop, I'm not sure if someone can see if i have 1 male and 1 female, any ideas ? If so any tips for breeding, seem to have plenty of mollies breeding, I know they are quite easy to breed as they are live breeders and...

I have this beautiful betta fish. Can someone help me identify the gender? -Thanx

Currently have a red betta and is very aggresive. I wonder what the gender is.

I find that my betta is a male, but they sold me a female. Im kind of confused. If someone can help who knows about the subject, it would be awesome.

This molly was bought two or three weeks ago and I chose her because she was a girl. Then after a week or so I looked again and thought I must have been mistaken. I have since read that it is possible for the fish to be a 'late bloomer' or even to change gender. But now she/he looks pregnant or...

Hello everyone!  I have two angle fish that my wife bought about 18 months ago and were told that they were a male and female...not necessarily paired.  I didn't know anything about angels then so we took the guys word.  Now I've researched sexing angelfish, and have come to the conclution that...

Hey folks!   I'm quite new to these forums and I just adopted two young bettas from a friend who no longer could care for them.  He bought them from Petco in the "baby betta" cups (which I've come to understand is highly looked down upon by many people through a little research).  I have since...

I have three gold dojo loaches but I don't know their gender. Two are younger and one is pretty big. How can I tell of they are boys or girl?

Hi,   Please help me to identify the gender of my Molly bought last week, I'm new into hobby, LPS did not know if it was male or female! Thanks  

I bought a young blue wagtail platy about 3 weeks ago, the pet shop owner said that the wagtail I was buying is female, but now I'm starting to think that my wagtail might actually be male, going by the anal fin being in a point. I am going to upload a picture, could you all please confirm...

A few questions on these beauties... They are selling them at Petco and I had never seen them before now. They are about an inch long not including finnage. Any ideas as to how old these little bubs are and is it possible to tell gender at this age or even type of Betta they are? Also, being...

I got fish yesterday and as they are my first fish and pets, i was thinking of naming them. I want to be able to know the differences between females and males. Anyone?
