Need Help Sexing Rams

[corza]

Hey guys,

I was just wondering if you could help me sex my gold and blue ram. From what I have read I am guessing the gold ram is a male and the blue ram is a female but I'm not 100% sure so I thought I'd get some help from the experts

Any help would be great.

Thanks everyone. And sorry about the bad pics, they were the best I could get.

Rams are strongly sexually dichromatic, but are also sexually dimorphic(they can change sex). Mature females will be much smaller than males and exhibit a bright metallic pink color through their abdomen when in breeding season. Males will generally also have an extended first (and sometimes second) dorsal spine.

that applies to both gold and blue rams

hope this helps
