I'm with Stephen. Now that I can get a good look at it, I'm 85% sure that it's female. The lack of red on the throat and from what I could tell are rounded fins suggest female.
Along with that the breeding tube is triangular. I'm not an expert with flowerhorn, but from what I've seen all female fish, or at least female cichlids, have a triangular breeding tube.I'm with Stephen.

Well idk why it would lay them on the sponge filter lolMaybe it's trying to. Without enough food it won't produce eggs. That or the fish is still learning.
She wants them to get sucked up because she wants nothing to do with them. lolWell idk why it would lay them on the sponge filter lol
Actually you should just learn how to talk to people period. Your rude and Weird. You troll women on a fish sight. You comment on every post I make and always think your opinion is the only one people should listen to. I literally don't even want to post things on here and use the site because of you. Stop discouraging people from the fish hobby. We are a very unique grouping of ppl and you should be nicer to the people who will carry the fish hobby on. Thank you
