I have been growing out some baby F1 Rotkeils and F1 Notatus.

I have got a dominant male and female out of the group that are much bigger than the rest, so i have 2 Rotkeils to sell.

1 is 2.5" the other is 3-3.5"

I was thinking of putting them up for sale on Facebook for £8 each or 2 for £15, do you think thats fair?

Heres a pic.

I paid $15 a piece for mine and I'd say mine are about 1" bigger but idk what that is in £.

Fish seem to be cheaper over here. Id say thats fair.

Or you could just send them to me.
 
I sold them for £12 for both, she didnt want the tiny one and I knew I couldn't sell it so i threw it in for another £4.

Still got more to sell eventually, but not decided which ones to keep as adults, plus even my biggest 4" one which has a full red neck, i still can't sex it properly, it has slight facial markings, but they all do lol.
 
If they all have facial markings, they're all male. Females will have a solid blue/grey face. The one in your picture appears to be a female.
 
They all have the same very feint markings with a blue face, the one in the picture has the most facial markings as its the biggest, you just cant tell from the pic.

They are all small so i dont think you can properly sex any of them yet.

The one in the pic is 4" (5" with the tail)
 
I only want to keep males, i'm going to attempt a all male Severum Community, my 8" Red Spot breeds with anything female that goes near him, he's bred 3 times now with 3 different fish, so need to keep it all male.
