KaitieG Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 I have a couple angelfish that have paired up and have laid a couple batches of eggs. I just have NO IDEA which is the male and which is the female (or are they both female and I have unfertilized eggs?) Here's what I know: 1. They are both very similarly sized 2. The Phillipine Blue is the one who guards the eggs 3. I've never actually seen one LAYING the eggs. Here are a couple pics--they just spawned today. I've heard people (who must be more observant than me!) can tell a difference with body shape and breeding tubes. They look pretty much the same to me though--so, expert opinions? Just curious! Also, first time I've had this issue, but I have NO CLUE why these are upside down and can't seem to fix them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guppy Guy Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 Some people say that the males are bigger, and have a bump on their head. This method hasn’t worked for me though. The females egg tube comes down a few days before the males does though, so hopefully that helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Levi_Aquatics Posted January 1, 2022 Share Posted January 1, 2022 About the upside down pics I have found you have to turn your phone so the camera is on the top and the volume button is on the bottom. At least with iPhones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least with iPhones I posted these on my computer, not on my phone, and they came through right-side-up when I emailed them to myself. Then I downloaded and dragged them into the post and they flipped upside down. Not sure what happened, but thanks 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
