hey man! that was sold as female? so its less expnsive then right?
i think u got lucky cos the dorsal fin, anal tube and the kok already developing all says its male.

its a nice looking fh too man.

The breeding tube and fins indicate that it is most likely a male. Someone screwed you over.

lol actually i think he got someone screwed over.
look at how nice that fh is to be a female.
 
now you understand why your other male beat the crap out of ur new fish..

dude and dude.. no way :nilly:

pretty nice fh.. i want to buy it for my female xD

and id think i seen it somewhere before too :o (it kinda look familar) =o
 
well that explains it then huh......... dang as soon as i seen the tube it had i was like wait a min that looks just like my males tube, well alright guys, thx, he is nice but not nice like i want him to be.....
 
Nice FH either way :). If it were four months from now I might be in the market for one too :)>
 
Looks male to me, I had someone do this to me, tell me it was a breeding pair but it was actually a dominant and a non dominant male.

I didn't care. I just returned one to the LFS.

It is really really nice though. I wish my male was that nice!

You could just sell it.
