Ok, i really want to get 2 female L260, without having to take one back because it turned out male. I have some questions. First, i have heard that the belly coloration is not alwaya true for females, as i know Barbie has females with colored bellies. But, if i see one with totally white belly, is it female. Also, can you explain how to tell the difference with the pectoral fins, can someone describe it more than the catelog does. Say i put 6-10 in a bucket that the LFS had. What is a difference i can look for to identify a female. Something that might standout. Thanks, and please help me out

Hi

I prefer to look at the shape of the head. Seen from above.

Females like <
Males like {

I hope it makes sense :D

That's the best explanation I've ever seen.
It's also simple to understand. Thanks!
