So here is a quick update... Double 125 gal rack. Polys moved from 55 gal.
From the "Breeding Ornate's" thread I'm guessing all of mine are females.. Great thread btw... So, if anyone can tell me for sure what I'm packin'.... in this 125 gal poly tank it would be appreciated...

Thanks for watching!!

I wouldn't think that you should worry about cannibalism at that size but keepin well fed won't hurt lol. As far as your polys i would say the del is a male the sen is a male and everything else i saw is a female. If your serious about trying to breed them i would try and get some pics of all of there anal fins (at least the ones you want to breed)
 
actually now that i look at it that second sen looks like it's a male
 
yeah the smaller ones are good i think both sens and the del are males the rest are females
 
The del too?! Can you tell me how you've come to your conclusion? I can't seem to tell the difference... :/

I read the "breeding ornates" thread and was trying to compare with the pics provided...

Any specifics would be appreciated. Thank you

My del looked female till a solid 9" and then bam. My male del and male sen swim up to my female polli and Senegal and nip at their anal fins and chase them around a bit, they're ready, just I doubt the females will ever be haha.

to me the del looks like it is a meaty anal fin (male) the senegal that was on the driftwood looks like a male to me. Might just be the angle that the anal fin is at but it looks like it's almost opened, but it could just be the angle.
