mr pleco Posted October 10, 2008 Report Share Posted October 10, 2008 look for one same size but no and i mean not a whisker of hair should be female also rounder in body shape would be better best of luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duncan7 Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Ive got two GBA here and one looks like your one with a few whispies, but the other has massive bristles like the common BN... I was kinda hoping that mine with the short bristles was a female and would breed but they are about 12cm total lengh now and nothing has happened yet... Guess they are both boys. Stink.

lmsmith Posted October 23, 2008 Report Share Posted October 23, 2008 Sometimes girls can get bristles, but not when they're only 6m/o. Boys get a strip of bristles on the top of their face, girls only have the AJ from Backstreet Boys look...like around the edge of their face. Not all girls get bristles - in my experience, not many do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
