What Age Can You Begin Sexing Your Chichla?

[channarox]

how would you vet them?

take them out of the water and flip em over.

are their vents the same as cichlids? u for female v for male?

only way i know for sure is when they start breeding.. the males will display their humps when they are trying to show dominance in a crowd, but not all of the males will always join in.
