I've got 2 ob peacocks, one ob zebra female and one strawberry peacock female. I know one ob peacock is male. But one I'm unsure about.

It has more egg spots than my other females. But also more drab than the male ob. It is 3"

Can anyone tell or do I need to vent.

I noticed that there are a lot of black specs on it since when I first got it. Could this mean it is indeed male and coloirs are coming in. I will try venting when I have the chance.

Looks like a male to me. I look for the pointy rear tip of the dorsal fin as well as the egg spots on the anal fin. But I heard it might be harder to differentiate with OBs as they are hybrids.
