Hard to say aon sex but you may be able to tell if you use a
magnifying glass as the male is already developed in that area right
from birth. Its easy to tellem apart so check em with a magnifying
glass. I would put those 37 fry in their own tank as a breeder is too
small and not really designed for raising up fry, as much as they are
for providing an area you can collect the fry and help prevent
canibalism by the female parent.

thx 4 the help!
how big do they need to be before i can let them in the main tank with out
the worry of canibalism?
in the most respectful way...how dose it look in a magnifine glass?
i know how to tell a boy from a girl from the anal fin but is ther another
way...
just so u know the male was dead
