Hi All,
I have a group of 8 C. guentheri guentheri which I adopted from a friend. I would like to determine the sex of each. In the group I have 1 obvious pair (as they spawned) so using them as my reference, I noted that the male has a fine red stripe on the edge of his dorsal fin while the female has a bit heavier iridescent stripe on the edge of her dorsal. As 5 of the group have red while 3 have iridescent, does this denote the sexes?
If not how can I tell?
Thanks for any help - Dan
