Male or female green terror

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Just an educated guess, "male". Not quite as flashy as a lot of male GT's, but the elongated dorsal & anal fins lead me to think male. Still a juvenile things will change.
Here's a pic of one of my best male GT's when he was a juvenile.

wow yours is bueatifull I was hoping for a male but only time will tell and I’ve heard that mine is a white saun not a gold does that sound right because his fins are white j got some more photos I will send through
 
The way to tell is in males the iridescent markings in the unpaired fins is very bright and shiny.

A male

I don't think I have ever seen a female that small whose dorsal fin started trailing like that.

Also for those that find this thread later:

The orange vs the white trim has nothing to do with gender , just a variation within the species.

For sure she was a female, she was showing off for a young male Festae that was in the tank.

She would lay a line of eggs, turn around and eat them ,then lay another.

If you look at the first photo mine look more shiny especially in person so I’m thinking a male but still not sure
