Please help me with these L200s.
They have been on the forum a year ago... but I would like to have a second look on them again before trying to breed them.
Fish 1)

Fish 2)

Fish 3)

Fish 4)

Fish 5)
I hope that I have some females... Im quite sure that two of them are males...
All of them are 12 cm SL or a bit more

Fish 4 is for sure a male.
Fish 2 is the most likely to be female.
To me, the remaining fish are male. But they aren't the easiest to sex.

Hello
For me a very difficult pleco to sex.
I have 6 of them myself and they will change the tank soon. Then I will make some pics and get here with the same question
I agree with Mats. Fish 2 could be a female and the rest is male I think.

Thanks!
I had a suggestion that fish 3 is a likley female.
Perhaps I will bring fish 2, 3 and 4 to another aquarium and see what happens...
Would be nice to have a few more female to shoose from...

Of the fish besides 2 & 4 that I'm pretty certain about, Fish 3 is the MOST likely to be a female (or least certain male), I agree. The head shape is somewhere between what I'd say is typically female and typically male. So why not give it a shot with 2, 3 & 4 in a tank.
