Hi there i just received my order of three Leporacanthicus.
Their size is from 15 to 18cm and i think that i have both sexes (at least i hope).

What do you think?

Possible female

For this i cannot tel but most probably male....(sorry for the blurry pic)

Definitely a male

Not at all 100% as I have been wrong in the past, but I believe you have female, male, male.

Are they L029 or L007?

Hi Dimitris, i agree to what Haavard had mentioned.

The thickness and length of the pectoral fins and the size of the pelvic fins shows a clear differentiation between the sexes, which looks similar to how i Identify my spinosus females.

Are you breeding them??
