  • @goliadfarms7029
    @goliadfarms702923 күн бұрын

    Lake Malawi cichlid juveniles always resemble females. It isn't until the males are 3-4" that they begin to develop male coloration and finnage. Even then, especially with peacocks, some young females show some male coloration. There are invasive means to check sex, but I refuse to take the time and expose the fish to yet another stress to do that. Charles
