Keyhole sex?

[despreauxb]

I'm trying to figure out the sex lol I know the other one I have is male. I thought they were bonded but then I changed their tank around and switch out plants but since then this one has been in hiding and stressed. I found it buried in the sand under driftwood. I took them both out and rearrange and hoping this helps

from these photos it seems to be male, can you move it into a breeder box or something for a clearer photo?

I'm not sure if these are any clearer. Could I move him into my 10G betta tank (female) until I get my new tank set up and cycled? Or would it be better to leave him in the tank being bullied? Will they be okay being the only keyholes in the tank? I thought they were supposed to be kept in pairs?

i think it is a male since he has sharp fins
do you have a spinach container or big net?
you coudl use that to seperate. i think the betta might bully him even more

I don't they're currently in a tank with betta now. And the betta in the smaller tank did okay with a DG. She just didn't along with other bettas
