Well I got denied on adding to my post count in the introduction forum, so I guess I'll have to post something legit around here to get my full membership.
I had some Parachromis friedrichsthalii flown in last week (I live in the boonies and local lfs's never have anything I'm into). Now that they are coloring up I am seeing two different color patterns and I think it is related to the two different sexes even though they are only 3" or so long. If anyone can help me sex them it would be greatly appreciated.
What I suspect to be a male...
and what I suspect to be a female...
Thanks again for any assistance. Any other information from members who have kept these guys would be welcome as well. There doesn't seem to be a whole lot out there.
