sexual differences green severum

[jumpin joe fish]

What are some of the sexual differences of a green severum. Do females
eventually color up as nice as males? Will females eventually get the red eyes?

thare is only one way to tell males from females, the male will have lines on his forhed and the female will not have thim

so does that apply to gold severums aswell? hmmmmmmmmm i vented my sev 4month ago and i think its a he ........but doesn't have any lines on his forhead

lines on the face is the easiest way but the green sev. show up better

It applies to gold/red spotted severums as well. They have a worm like pattern on their face. For instance:

Male

A female will have less worms/pattern on her face, it will look more like the foreground color of their body.

Female

Hi Guys, Thanks for the Info, I just got 2 Gold Severums today, still small though. Sure they will get nice and big.
P.S. how will they cope with my Clown Knife?

Geeezzzzz - I just Googled "Red Spotted Gold Severum" and guess where the info popped?

It's surprising how little is on line about them - I never knew there was such a thing until I saw and bought mine yesterday!
