does anyone have a female carpintis and can post some pics of this black blotch on the dorsal fin as i have a carpintis with a darkened area on the dorsal fin but nothing to what i would call a blotch. thx in advance
 
it has like a faded black right above the black stripes on the dorsal fin. just that way it acts with other male and female fish wants me to say female but i dont know. hes also alot more blue then what the pics lead you to believe. but here are some pics

Here is a picture of my pair. The top left is the female and the bottom right is the male....You can see the black blotch in the dorsal fin in the female compaired to the male.

those are very nice and thanks for the comparison as mine looks like the one on the bottom right but has more black on fin like the one on top left.
 
It wasnt rusty at one point but over time in the water it got like that. ill pick up some egg crate next time im at home depot.:D
