Sexing L397, Pair??
Good evening friends! Has been a while since I didn't posted and now I'm coming with some doubts regarding a 2 fish I bought it as a pair. Both fish are hairy and when I bought them I took into consideration the shape of the head and alao the fact that one of them has huge odontodes comparing with the other one. The only thing which ia concerning me is the shape of the body, meaning that both of them are slim if I can use this word but I tought thay the female might not be in spawning mood or something like this. I mannaged to get some pictures from the top/side/head/below of the one which I believe is a female but on the other fish which I'm 100% is a male I mannaged to take only a couple of pictures with the head from the side.
I will try to post the pictures in the hope that will be visible .
So if you are more experiences with mature L397 please fell free with some opinions.
Fish 1(?? Female??)

Second fish (Male)
I will try to post some more pics with the Male.
Cheers!!

Sorry, I think something with your pictures didn't work out. At least I can only see a male here.

Nah, when it's hairy + thin it is a male. Females will have way less hair or almost none. When she got a nice round belly as well as no hair you can be sure it is a female.
