The green terror is definatly a female, can tell by the drab color and lach of spangling or trailers on fins, texas I'd say is a female also because of the rouned dorsal and anal fins.

 

[mbunafishkeeper]

could you get better pics of finage??

cannt tell for sure at that size either.

 

[ofish14]

what does drab color mean? so for the texas, pointed ends on the fin would be a male then?

cant tell you about the texas but your terror is too small to be sexed just yet. all people can tell you are guesses at the moment. wait until it puts another inch or 2 on then try again.
