now a days its just a guessing game. usually you can tell if it a female if it has a black spot on the dorsal fin and doesnt have a kok or very small kok. but with all the different speices being introduced it can be misleading. the best way to tell is by venting. but just from the looks of the pictures my guess is still a male take a picture of is anus and we would definately be able to tell you.jessiejames;1560031; said:just curious how do u tell if they are male or female?
