Hello everyone I have recently purchased two ornatums for 60$ ... Yea I'm still suprised and jealous of myself lol I I couldn't believe it but that's what I love about this hobby. Anyways I figured if I didn't try and breed these fish id be doing a disservice to the hobby and species. One is about 4-5 inches supposed male and the other 2 inches supposed female. Does anyone know how to sex this awesome species.

I've also learned that makes will have much more spangling in the face than the females, along with what duanes stated.
