Re: Fish Sexing
The Severum looks like a female to me. I used to have a mature, often spawning, pair about 10 years ago.

Re: Fish Sexing
No, I have no opinion nor experience with the others. That is one feisty tank you've got going there!

Re: Fish Sexing
You would think, but they are surprisingly peaceful towards eachother. We'll see how that changes when the convict cichlid's start to lay eggs ;P

Re: Fish Sexing
From my experience with the Salvini its kinda hard to tell till the males start to mature but by looking and guessing I would say male as well as for the green terror. again no guarantee just opinion. I* tried to sex my Salvini for months then he matured and I new by coloring.

Re: Fish Sexing
I agree on the opinion of the two being males. They both have very obvious pointed fins, which is usually a pretty good sign to tell, but since i don't have females to compare them to, its a little more difficult :P
