Determining the sex of this individual

[zenith8]

I'm completely in the dark about this, but I've got my fingers crossed it's what I'm hoping for... all will be revealed once I find out the gender, and let's just say I'm really rooting for a specific outcome. If it's not what I'm expecting, well, it's going to be a tough decision.

Dorsal seems male to me, only had a few so far though, no expert here

Looks like a female to me, I'm pretty sure anyway, could be wrong.

Hope I'm right. That first reply freaked me out a bit... does anyone know for sure?

[keyport]

Looks like a female, slightly rounded and pink on the belly.

100% female, I'm pretty sure of it. If you're interested, I have a breeding journal in the africans section you can check out for reference.

No trailing dorsal fin, and the tail fin isn't pointed either. Agreeing with the others, I think it's a female.

Definitely Female, 100%.

Males tend to have less vibrant colors even when they're in breeding mode.
The dorsal fin on a male is typically pointed, whereas this one isn't, and the tail fin is more like the spade symbol on a playing card.

Not this one, I'm still unsure about mine though.

[coralhaven]

Yeah, second one's a male, no doubt.
