New female Jag

[cambrew]

I picked this jag up a few weeks ago now and am just after a confirmation on its sex. I have done some research and think it is a female also but have seen the odd photo of male jags at this size (5-6") which look very similar to the picture below.

Cool I agree she looks nice and is why I was a little unsure of her sex as a lot of female pics I see look fairly plain.

Yup that is a female. She looks good

Hate to go against the grain...but that looks like a male to me. Don't go by color. The pattern appears male.

I was going off of the rounded shorter fins more than color

I agree on that...but still young. I have a strain of Jaguar where the male look more like that. Been wrong before.

I agree, to me it looks male. My old male looked almost identical, at that size, to the jag in that picture.

He/She has just started making a nest over the last couple of the days. Is this a sign of a female or do both males and females do this?

Male jags don't get that rounded belly, that's definitely a very nice female
