northland chic Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 I agree with Alan, I think they are both males. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breakaway Posted June 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Oh, I see. The one on the 2nd post pic have been kind of harassing the one on the top pic, I figured that this would be a female, because it does not have any colourings on its tail or fins like the ones in the second post. Thanx GUys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kim Posted June 10, 2004 Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 females are silver in colour very boring looking and 95% of the female dwarf gouramis look like that. only nice ones are the chocolate (females) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breakaway Posted June 10, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 10, 2004 Thanx for the help guys, this one must be younger than the other 3, hence no colourings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 The most dominant male in the tank will often harrass the smaller males too. Many people assume they are male and female when one keeps chasing the other. A common mistake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
breakaway Posted June 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 But I assumed the smaller one was female because it had no colorings 8) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caryl Posted June 12, 2004 Report Share Posted June 12, 2004 Smaller males will often be less colourful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
