Determining kribensis sex

[taylord]

Hey guys, just got a krib a couple days ago and I'm having trouble figuring out its sex. I'm thinking it's a female, the dorsal fin looks pretty rounded to me, but I'm not 100% sure. I've got some pics here, sorry they're not the best quality...

Based on the dorsal fin I'd say you're right, looks like a female to me too

Yeah, I'm with you on that, looks like a female to me too.

Looks like there's a bit of a difference between the first and last pics, was there a time gap between them? The first pic seems to show a more female-like dorsal fin, but the last one's got me thinking it might be a male.

Yeah, the first pic was taken a day earlier. The last one, the fins are moving, so that's why they look more pointed. I've posted these pics on a couple other forums and some people are saying it's a male, which is kinda making me second guess myself.

Give it some more time to mature, I reckon. There's other things that point to it being male, not just the pointy fins - elongate body shape and the colour on the dorsal going right to the tip, that's all typical male stuff. Keep us posted on what you get.
