Looks female to me. Short ventrals, short fins, small beard bt to be sure. Heck for a small white dot in between the beginning of the anal and the ventrals. It's called the ovipositor
Oh, sorry for the wrong word. I forgot it was with a p. Her ventrals are pretty long and a TINY bit fat so that's why I thought. But you're a very experienced breeder so you should be right. :l
As far as I know the cloaca only extends creating he ovipositor appearance when over fed. I have learned this from Kayla Griffin and we both know who that is
To me her ventrals look short, lol.. My males ventrals are twice as long as that. I guess I'm no used to regular ventrals as with HMPK'S the standards call for the ventrals being 2/3 the length of the body which is LONG. Everything says girl to me including the lipstick, lol. What tailtype would it be if it was a boy? Looks near identical to my red HM female
It's just typically, from what I've seen, male ventrals are long and straight. Female ventrals can be long but they'll be shaped differently. *shrugs* Don't really know how to describe it.
its gill membrane isnt big like a male and she an ovopositor ( i think it is) im not sure because the ovopositor is poking out , shouldnt it be small????

if your fishes color is dull and not very bright then its female and if its very bright and has many colors then its male. but females also have different colors but the dullness of the color points to female. hope that helps.
Not always so, my female if very brightly colored. She is as colorful as my male.
