Hello, I was at my LFS the other day and noticed they had small red devils in stock( I assumed they were midevils), anyways a picked one up, he or she is about 3 inches and adjusting to there 55 gallon quite nicely, started eating day 1, abit shy but I expect that to go away with age

One of the best things about Red Devils is the change over time. You’ll have to keep us updated as this one grows.

Hello, so I was looking at my midevil today and realized there's some kind of tube sticking out if his or her genetelia, possibly an egg tube? Maybe a female?

Yup I agree its a Female

Since females have to pass eggs, their tube is much thicker than a males.

Yeah I'm pretty sure you his are right I took a closer pic and saw the tube is not pointy it's more rounded and bulging
