My Rope Fish!

[Lexitron]

I just got two rope fish about a week ago; one male and one female I think (if my sexing is correct haha). I love these cute little guts to pieces already and they seem to be doing really well. I was wondering, since they are a male and female pair, anyone have any name suggestions? The bichir is named Caligula.

Cleopatra!

That's so funny you said that! I am reading a biography about her right now XD

I do have the sphinx in there too; I'll consider it

Cute ropies btw...
Hopefully, your sphinx is named Ramses....

So cute!

If you get pics of the anal fins we can confirm sexing, but they are simple to do. Could tell instantly with mine.

Thanks! I think they're adorable too :3 The sphinx didn't have a name, but he does now

I will try to do that; it would be good to have a second opinion on their sex.

Here is one of them; I am still attempting to get a shot of the other one but she (at least I think 'she' haha) has been hiding all day.

Looks like a male to me!

I think so too; the other one's anal fin is much small, almost blending into the rest of her body, so I'm thinking female for sure. Still can't get that picture haha
