i have a dempsey that is about 6 in. long and i want to breed it, but im not sure how to sex them. any info. on sexing them or just breeding in general.
 
Much can be said about the facial markings. As well as structure of the fish :)

Venting is always an excellent suggestion :)

Top fish Female :) Bottom is the Male ;)

I suck at sexing JD's but in my experience with them, I couldn't stop them from breeding. One thing that I noticed is that a raise in the temp, water change and some frozen krill set the mood for them. I hope that the mated pair are in a tank by themselves because they are VERY aggressive when protecting their territory. Good luck
