My new fahaka (pic's)

[LD50]

I got my 1st non cichlid about 4 hr's ago and I allredy love the little guy, I'm just calling it a male b/c I'm not sure how to sex a fahaka (if it's possiable) so if anyone could give me a clue that would be super. But he is just about 2 inches from tip to tip and is scarfing pemysis shrimp allredy. Any name suggestions? I was thinking Bullet Tooth Tony or Chompers

Awesome! Just wait a few months until he's quadrupled his size and starts getting his stripes.

To answer your question there isn't really a way to tell males from females, unless your puff decides to lay eggs in which case, voila, you have yourself a female... but as far as i personally know, i don't think there is a way to tell just by outside appearances...
