Update...pics taken without light still he is fading .Kok shrunk little bit and coming back.He is active. This is a male right? Since I have a small doubt whether it falls under female.post your opinion on his development.

I’d be doubtful it’s a female. Likely is a male. Looking at his vent you should be able to tell. You don’t always even have to remove the fish too see clearly enough.

Development looking good. Especially cool looking in that last photo.
I just provide him few minutes of mirror excercise and can you let me know what colour lighting would be better for the faders?Since I fixed a white coloured one.
