I just need help identifying if it's male or female. I have 5 that are around 2 1/2 - 3 inches.

2nd biggest - most aggressive:

biggest - least aggressive:

2nd smallest - 2nd most aggressive:

smallest :

I don't have a picture of the other one but it looks similar with the 2nd biggest.

Thank you in advance. Quality of the pics are not that great.

Totally a guess, but I would venture 1 and 3 are males and 2 and 4 are females. Remember, just a guess.

I have to agree with agez...they're still a bit too small to tell. at 3-4" will be around the size you'll be able to tell. :)

I agree to small, but best guess I would say female for last two and male for first two.

Thank you all :) . My guess is that the first pic is a male. All the others, I have no clue:D . I've been very patient with these guys. They grow very slow so I just have to wait until they get a little bit bigger.

I was thinking the same thing, but I only feel really confident about #1 and # 2.

Thanks CHC & Punky. They look so much better in person. They are coloring up real nice but for some reasons when I take pics, it won't capture the colors :(. The fins and tails are very red and their faces are full of green/blue spangles :) .
