Green Terror Sexing

[atmetoyer]

I will vent it right now. Maybe that will come this sob down!

Well I pretty sure it is a male oo. Stressed him out pretty bad too.

Im in Omaha. The JDs arent beautiful anymore... The GT has beat them up pretty bad and is still beating them up. I am going to take the JDs to a LFS ASAP!!! I don't know what happened my tank was so peaceful a few days ago. I think I just found out why they are called Green TERRORS!

The aggression could be from not having a big enough tank for them. What size tank are they in? Look to be a 55. If so thats way to small for the 3 of them.

looks female

FEMALE, I have a female and everything looks like yours, except mine was purchased beaten up. Also go out and buy a lighting egg crate to seperate them. Mine just laid eggs the other day for nothing now most eggs are white.

any reticulation in the fins means it's a boy.

I second that motion! You could find egg crate at pretty much any hardware store that carries supplies for suspended ceilings. It's really cheap too for a big sheet. The best and cheapest dividers I have used and made.

any reticulation in the fins means it's a boy.

Question.... Could you please elaborate on reticulation? I have a little GT too I am trying to figure out and sex.

Lolz when you post this thread some people said male and some people said female. Then you sob it and say male and now almost everyone says female

body shape looks kind of female but coloring is definitely all male, i have never seen a female with that much coloring or design within the fins, and if you vented it as male then its def male, he just could be a late bloomer with his trailers and what not but yeah trailers are really not a reliable way to sex GTs, his coloring though def points to male

I don't like the way dividers look. I got the GT when it was an inch big and I planned to get rid of the JD's when it got bigger. I wanted to grow the GT out and get the opposite sex and have a pair. This was the first time I vented a fish but I am almost positive it was not oO. I am going to take the JD's to a LFS and maybe get a female GT.
