I'm saying female. Males don't have the dark area in the dorsal fin and also they tend to have a lot of blue spangles.

anymore thoughts?

Female. Drab colours eh?

 

[twhittle]

I am sure she will color up.

It's a female and she'll color up when she's not stressed. Even though the video is washed out, I can still see the blue stress bars and some red. The black dorsal section gives her away.

iam happy now, i started to freak because i thought it was a male.
