I purchased these a few weeks ago from Ken Davis. They are supposed to both be females but I am beginning to wonder if they are.

Here is a picture I snapped when I got home this evening. One of them managed to get past the divider sometime during the day. They are back to being seperated now.

Sorry for the poor quality pictures. I just snapped a couple of pics with my p&s before I seperated them.

Here is a picture from when I first received them on 12/18/09.

well, I havent had dovii in a while, but if I recall, spotting in their unpaired fins makes them male...and they both have it.

here was a male and a female I had around the same size I think. males about 2.5, female 3.5.

That's kind of what I am thinking as well. My goal was to get my male a woman but not sure it is going to work out that way. Here is the male I am trying to help get lucky. :D

Thanks. I'm charging up the batteries for my 50D so hopefully I can get some better pictures of the two little ones later this evening. If not I will get some tomorrow evening. I've already got all three flashes in place so I'm ready. :D

Here are some more pics of the little ones. They are still mad at me for doing a water change and seperating them so the pictures are very dissapointing.

Here is the first one.

So you think they are both females?
 
Took a few more pictures of the two in question. Please excuse the water spots on the glass.

Here is the first one.
