Hi together,

maybe some of you remember that I got a midas not long ago (profile pic). The midas was from a friend and I really liked it, but two weeks ago he wanted it back cause he got his hands on a female and wants to try them to breed….
Long story short… I gave it back to him and had a tank left with no fish. Having the midas was great so I decided to go on with amphilophus. It‘s really hard to get a midas where I live so I had to go for a red devil. Its about 4-5 inch and I would like to get some opinions on sexing?
As far as I read i would tend to male because of the shape of his head. Any suggestions?

Can‘t wait to grow this one out. Maybe even better than having an already 9 inch midas in the first place…

Both male and female Red Devil can have a nuchal hump.You will have to vent the Red Devil.
