I just bought this wild Umbee yesturday. Its 4 inches long and eats like a pig already. It displays aggression at the glass when I come by and it is social.

It looks so much different from my F1 columbian Blue Umbees which are close to the same size.

Here are the photos of him or her ?

Maybe you guys can take a stab at guessing the sex.

Notice the teeth in the close up. Looks Dovii like.

The bottom photo under the close up is its actual size.

That would probably depend on monitor size. ;)

Greal looking fish though, I look forward to seeing him grow up so please keep us posted.
 
If I had to take a guess, I would say male. Umbees vary in body and look even if from same location. I have 5 incher with 3 smaller ones that I believe are female. If you interested in a fem, let me know.
 
I'm hoping for a male. I have a group of 6 F1s from Rapps which look way different then my wild Umbee. My biggest F1 is just about 4 inches now. Take a look at F1s in the 6 columbian umbees topic and compare to my wild one.

Why do they look so different and is that normal.
