Hello all,

This is my first Channa and it is only around 7" at the moment. Could someone please confirm whether it is a female or not?
After spending some time researching I am guessing it is a female but would like to hear confirmation from you experts since I am still pretty new with this wonderful fish.

Many thanks in advance.:D
