I have 3 angels, 2 of them are about 3-4" and the other is about 2" but how do I tell if they are male or female?
 
:/ It is very difficult to tell and most of the methods are unreliable.
however, someone may have a way of telling.
 
It's pretty much nearly impossible until they're actually paired up and ready to spawn. At that point, there is a difference in the size and shape of their breeding tube. There are some people who maintain that in adult males, the forehead is rounder and larger, but that wouldn't be the case in smaller angels like you've got.
 
Thanks for your help anyway guys, they will be going into a new 55 gallon tank soon when I get it along with a discuss Im hoping to get, they will be okay together wont they?
