well the smallest is now inch and a half, the largest is 2 inches.. and NO ONE IS SHOWING FEMALE TRAITS!!! out of 6 handpicked fry (and i do mean fry, these guys werent even half an inch when i got them) apparently i have all boys? they'd definately be showing female traits and maybe some bonding by now, right? all 5 normal colored cons are showing a pretty powder blue on their anal fins..and the pink con is well, just a pink con..nice solid white.

am i right that i should be able to sex at least the larger ones at this size?
 
If you had any females, there would more than likely be spawning going on by now. And yes, females will begin to start showing the orange bellies by that size. But, who knows, give it a little more time.
 
i picked up 20 lil fry about 2 months ago. The largest one is pushing about a inch. i feed them twice a day. i havent seen any pair off yet. Good luck on finding a female.
 
o well, i can live with all males, it kinds cuts down on having to worry about spawning aggression... i feed my guys 3-4 times a day, its took them a little over a month to get this big..
 
the biggest one looks like it has some color starting on its side.. but its green and gold, not red or orange...what the heck.
 
Wow, no fm's i have 6 cons also in my 100g. Gave my friend some fry and he gave me them back at .5" now 1" all but 2 are showing female marks aka yellow color, im a lucky bastard i guess...lol
