that is sweet. I have 3 left from jeff rapps that im waiting for them to pair off. I had four but they killed it. How big do they have to be when they pair off? Mine our 2". I think i might have a male, he his a lot bigger then the other two. I can't wait. they seem like kind of slow growers.

I think mine are just over 3", although I don't know exactly how old they are.

These guys are fairly easy to sex - males have more pointed dorsal and anal fins. If all else fails, vent them :D
 
ow ok that is sweet. not to much longer then. They are such cool little fish. I was told you couldn't sex them so i never tried. i will have to have a look at them. I have never done the venting, how to you tell?
