Male,female

[woodfin]

Hey all.
I just got 4 green tiger barbs.all are about 1/2" to 3/4" long.are these gut too young to tell male from female. What should I look for as far as differences. Been reading online but is making my head spin. Looking for good advice
Thanks Woodfin

Sounds like they are still way to young to sex.

I think you meant "too young" to sex (?)

Just know that TB's do best in large groups, to spread their inherent natural aggression, and that they usually are best kept in a species-only tank.

Thanks for the feedback all.its good to hear from people who know.main issue for me is I only have access to big box pet stores.the knowledge just ain't there.i was told that TB's are "non-aggressive...should have come to TFF sooner.
Live and learn I guess ?
