I have had my Salvini since the beginning of the year from a very small juvi, it has gone from no colour to bright red and yellows and now to a dark and bluey sheen which is a trait of a male. The dot on the dorsal fin stood out in the early days but now not so much. So I'm wondering what's your opinion on the second?
This was a picture from about July

This is a picture from today (there looks to be more colour in the picture but when looking with your eyes the sale seem such darker)

female, females have black on dorsal fin and black spot on gill cover.
 
Yeah I new she was really just disappointed that her colour went, she must need to get in a frisky breeding mood to get her colour back.
