HelenMac Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 Hi everyone was wondering if anyone could tell me the colour of a female forktail blue eye rainbow (pseudomugil furcatus) I can only find photos of the male. I bought 1 pair then bought another pair. Second female is totally different in colour to the first female also does not swim with the others.

Thunderstorm Posted March 28, 2005 Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 HIya Quoted from a website As with most Rainbowfish, males are easily distinguished from their female counterparts. Males will have extended dorsal and anal fins and will display much more prominent, vivid colorations. Females tend to be slightly less colorful and have shorter, clearish fins, in addition to being slightly smaller and thinner. http://www.myfishtank.net/freshwaterprofiles.php?profile=199 Hope this helps Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelenMac Posted March 28, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2005 One of the females I got has orange fins and tail and a blue tinge to the body. Whereas the other has yellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
