hi,i have 3 juvi gold severums at approx 2-3 inches.at what age are they sexable and how can i tell if they are males or females???thanks in advance mark.
 
2-3 inches is probably around the time you might be able to tell..

keyword might..

look on the broad side of their face.. between the eyes..

if there are lots of bright squiggles its a male
if there are no squiggles, or a few dull ones, its a female..

some will tell you to look at fins, but i think the face is the easiest way
 
thanks.i'll try and post some pics if the little sods will keep still lol.
