The FH looks like a male to me. The midas/RD is indistinguishable unless you know where it came from. The ck looks good. And the birchir is nice too. The water however....uh.....hmmm....It looks like skim milk, sorry.....You need to crank up the water changes with the bio-load you have in that tank. Not being mean, just letting you know the real deal. I could care less if the tank is too small, you need to keep up with the ammonia and nitrates....IMPO. They do look great and healthy but you could do them so much more justice with clear water...Good luck and welcome to MFK, and sorry for sounding like a jerk

The fish look great, BUT the fish could be greater. The colors, size, girth, health and happiness etc. are dependent on water changes. I agree with BIGSPIZZ though, your FH is a male, and the other could be a hybrid. There is no way to tell.

i undertstand about the water the pics all were taken rite befor water change. they get their water changed weekly and the levels stay fine but i understand the concern. also my lighting and such in the tank sucks these are the first pixs i could put on here that you could tell what they are. and the CK will be going in a 180gal that is setup and cycling. thanx for the input.
