Sexing this fish is very difficult when they are young because they all have black striping. The males will nearly if not completely vanish upon reaching maturity whereas the females stay with her throughout her life. The male is also gold with black speckles. Once mature males are larger than females as well.

Males tend to reach sizes up to 16 inches in length whereas females are only around 12 inches or more typically 10 inches.

that would help you identify. i think female
