knee Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 On 2/4/2023 at 6:55 AM, Chick-In-Of-TheSea said: Maybe @knee can help sex the ram, and then we can figure out a name. To get your photos to flip the right way, just crop them a tiny bit. @The endler guy is correct. That’s 100% a male. I was observing mine yesterday and I noticed another difference between the male and the female. The pelvic/ventral fins in males, if folded close to their body, will touch the anal fin. In females, there would always be space between the pelvic (even if folded) and anal fins. This might not be a confirmed method to sex them, but I currently have 4 males and 5 females, and they all show that on their fins. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is terrifying to shrimp and he likes to patrol his tank (similarly to how the ac130 “spooky” circles above the battlefield), also he will spook you by appearing from the shadows and intimidate you with his big scary fins! BOO! Jump scare! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted February 17, 2023 Share Posted February 17, 2023 My Bolivian was pre-owned 😄 for 8 months prior to coming to me so I didn't have to medicate for anything but moping, and the only cure for that was taking him out of QT early. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
