This is "Tiny" currently about 2 inches. I've had it since he/she (leaning toward female with lots of spangling?) was quite literally only an inch. Tiny was bullied excessively in the small/overcrowded tank it was in and is now basically running the show in this tank. The only one that does not seem too bothered by it is the Pacu!
Note: I had to turn the brightness down on this photo so you could see it. My lights were on and it was one of those "hurry up it's sitting still for two seconds" moments.
Not a true festae
no need to worry about that...
Nice Festaes.
Wow that's cool. tiny pair; colors barely kicking in lol
Tiny is male and by the looks of it he's going to be a stunner.

He's definitely got the "stunner" attitude! One can only hope. Even if he turns out to look mediocre, he'll always be my favorite, who doesn't love the underdog! Could you give me some of your input on the male determination?
I also found an older thread:

I have an untrained eye. I'm always looking to improve. I thought female because of the color but also noticed too much spangling to be female? I have seen females with spangling just not that much.
Thank you all for the kind words!
