Is Betty a Boy or Girl?

[pookie]

Or is she to young to tell. Around 6inches now. Here are some pictures

This is how she stares when you walk up on her

This is her food lol started with 10 down to 3 !
She has grown a pretty good amount off of them, but the last three are very smart and I am not sure she is eating her shrimp pellets.. I put a good amount in every night for her though.

What would be another good feeder fish for her? Not goldfish I know that..
Nothing crazy expensive..

I am eager to know as much as I can on her! She is a very awesome fish

First off, You will need clearer pics to tell sex for sure.
Get a clear close pic of the anal fin. From the pics I would guess female.

Secondly, get her off live food!
Wean her onto pellets and shrimp.

I wasnt planning on her eating the platy yet lol they were VERY large compared to her mouth, but she managed..

Is live food bad for her? She ate the shrimp pellets until she got the taste of the platy.

She is posted up in a viper pose inside a rock right now, and my stupid light went out so I have to get one tomorrow. I will post up more pictures and see if I have some in my phone..

Get Hikari Sinking pellets.

For sex, you would need a picture of the anal fin

Feed raw shrimp not cooked. Very few fish in the wild cook their food before eating it. Something to do with fire and water not mixing. Although I have heard rumours of certain walking catfish crawling onto land and rubbing sticks together.
