help in sexing festae

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
From the picture on top. The main difference between the m and f is the blue spangling in the fins and body.
I 90% sure I have both females as I don't see pairing going on. One is bullying the other a lot no major damaged observed. I bought another festae which is supposedly a male(blue spangling in the fins), Will post pics tom.

How about this one, he or she? Sold to me as a WC male. The color is totally different from the first 2 that I posted.

This one looks like a very stressed out male. My guess on the other 2 are female, but it might not hurt to let them settle in just to be sure.

Also, if you put that male in with the two "females", the one in question should show it's true colors making it easier to sex.
