recently purchase a group of Hypancistrus sp. lower Xingu need help from the you guys to sex them. intend to put them into two groups. hoping to have some females in the group. Thanks

A B C

D E F

G H I

all of them look like males (i think :S)except B a definite gravid female

I think there are more than one female in the group, but it's often hard to say for sure. I'd say C, D and G are possible females too.

If I was told to pick a male or two, I'd go for A and/or F. The rest are harder to say whether they are male or female.

i was told 5 females in the group, i think B, C, and G. i was thinking of putting 1male to 2 females.

There may well be 5 females in there. However, by looking at the pictures, it's hard to say for sure.

A mix of 1 male and 2 female is definitely a good choice.

I'd say you have more females than males.

A: male?
B: gravid female
C: female?
D: possibly male
E: possibly female
F: possibly male
G: female
H: female
I: male

I'm really not sure about D-F.
