I came home today and noticed my Midas's vent was much larger than normal today. I'm not trying to be a perve but I figured I'd take a few pics to try confirming the sex of my midas... here are a few pics let the voting begin.

Male.
 
Yeah, that's one hell of a lady.

From the full body shots you posted up previously I thought for sure it was a male.
 
in the first pic i thought that there was one of the those wormy guys hanging out like you see in some pictures of fish with that junk but then i realized it was a fin haha
 
ok so he's a she... What caused her goods to come out like that? There are no males in the tank... one one side of the fish the tube looks cylinder shaped with a flatish end. but from the other side it looks more pointy.. thats what kept throwing me off.

ie.

I said male but basedit soley on the third photo where it looks to be curved forward. I don't mind being wrong, just want to know "why".
