Sexing Sajica

[~T~]

Ok so it looked like the tank in the lfs had all males but now that they are settling into my tank im not too sure. The last ones I got looked like this but turned out to be 3 females (though these have a little more blue and red to the fins). They have also started displaying to each other (again females will do this).

What you think?

both female, females have yellow on dorsal and anal fins.

Thanks I was thinking that too. Oh well maybe one day I'll be able to get a pair. My lfs's only ever seem to get them in as one sex and only very rarely.

the fins on the males are pointy and very red whereas the females are rounded.

There's a picture of my male sajica in my sig.

Yep they look like females to me
If you want a male do what i did buy four of them put them all in the same tank and just wait for a couple to pair off it worked for me and i have lots of babies still lol

I got another 2 and althoug one is a definate female I think one migh be male as theres no yellow on the dorsal and the other fins are much redder than the other 3 fish. We shall see though it coild still end up female knowing my luck.
