Tubes out - is this male or female Midas?

[biguebs]

Midas i got a couple weeks ago and have posted about - asked for male but obviously they don’t guarantee anything when they send them out.
Anyway, the tube is out. Male or female? Tried searching the forum but couldn’t find anything super definitive other than rounded vs pointy and some blurry pictures. This seems “pointy” to me?

Sorry for dirty tank- I am doing big cleanout and water change today. Just finishing an ich treatment cycle in both of my 125s.

Pics could be better, but appears to be male. Not 100% though, need better photos.

Agreed but everything points to male as of right now.

Did you ask it how it wanted to identify?

Haha i should have started with that rather than doing this dumb post!

As far as i can tell he wants to identify as a bulldozer

Lol yeah no eggs.. I think he’s convinced himself that his own image in the side of the tank is a potential mate.
