Myah Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Forgot to mention, have also got 2blue emperor tetras in my tank. Does anyone have any photos of female sailfin mollys so that I can compare them with the fish I have? Been looking round the shops and on trademe but can't find another fish like it to keep (her?) company Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan Posted July 28, 2007 Report Share Posted July 28, 2007 Note the difference in their anal fin Myah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myah Posted July 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Thankyou all for your input and help but what does 'MTS' mean? Being new to all this sort of thing, I'm not up on all the jargon. Thanks to Wilson for the photos of the sailfins but my fish doesn't quite look like that. Tried to download a photo of it but didn't succeed. It's body is similar to the photos but its body from behind the anal fin is longer and thinner and the dorsal fin stands much higher. It's a browny gold sort of colour with little black stripes through its' body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 MTS - multiple tank syndrome . A disease known to hobbyists who find they need "just one more tank" for that new species, those angel fry, that new fish etc etc etc :lol: Are you able to show us a pic of your fish?

livingart Posted July 29, 2007 Report Share Posted July 29, 2007 Note the difference in their anal fin Myah. The anal fin is the small fin under the fish where the poo comes out, on a female it is shaped like a triangle, om a male it is shaped more like a pencil lead, hope that helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
