Dimidiochromis Compressiceps sexing???

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
It looks like a dimi comp, but that will become more apparent as it matures. Oh and congrats, it's a boy! :WHOA:

A general rule in venting a small hole small hole oo = male, some species the vent hole is slightly triangulated like your comp. Small hole bigger hole oO = female with the vent being donut shaped which becomes more pronounced after the fish starts spawning :thumbsup:

It’s looks to be in the aulonocara (peacock) family. Possible a juvenile male blue regal peacock

Thank you, I wanna ask you about my CA and SA cichlids too, but it's already a night time in my timezone, so maybe tomorrow! I'll need to drain 70-80% of water out to be able to catch them though.
