Is there an easy way to sex an Oscar I would post a pic but my camera is down right now

Currently he (at least I call it a he all the time) is by himself in a hundred gallon tank with plans for a pleco and some silver dollars in the works real soon
 
evryone says the same thing, you gotta vent it, but never has anyone mentioned how to do it, as i have intrest too,,,
 
A females vent is the same size as her anus "OO"
where as a males vent is smaller than his anus "Oo"

also a females vent from the side looks curved "U"
where as a males vent will be more of a point "V"


it is very hard to vent fish, even if you no how to do it you still need to no what you are looking for..................

this is a vent of a male Jag.

You cannot cause a fish to vent. The vent of a fish is the external part of it's reproductive system.

The easiest way to vent a fish is to catch it out of the water and have a look.
 
allright then thanks for the information
 
its a girl :nilly:
