fry aggression

[Justmeingardner]

Hello all. First time raising apisto fry (Apistogramma sp. pebas 'morado' and A. borelli 'blue'). Just wondering if someone more experienced can answer a question? At about 7-8 weeks, the borelli especially are showing adult behaviors (chasing, tail-wagging, etc). The fish are about 1/2 - 5/8".

What I am wondering is this: Do the females as well as males show aggression at this stage? Trying to guess sexes by behavior...lol. Any thoughts?

Ah-ha! Never mind. Found the answer I was looking for in another section "Apistogramma". Somebody else was attempting to sex juvenile borelli. Need to read boards more often, I guess.
