I also have to admit defeat, after seeing the better pics of the fish I instantly said that it was a myan, sorry I didn't get back soon work has been keeping me pretty busy.

 

[Zawiha]

yup it definately looks like a
Urophathalmus.

the comparison seals the deal

Hi all... I'm in the same boat... Is mine a Festae or a Mayan... An male or Female?

Recently i have reason to believe this fish is infact a female!
i read they have no sexual dimorphism or colour difference and the only way to tell is by the genital papillæ,
the other day after feeding i noticed it was starting to hang out, and it was blunt and did not come to a point.
well i snapped some pics but i have to admit the pics dont really show the shape of it, but im doubting its a male.

i need positive ID as im looking to breed from the fish, heres the pics

barred up (most of the time, aggressive)

Close up

when calmed down

all pictures of sexing i can find on the net are from an underside view, theres no way i can look under this fish

That fish has a very nice stron colour, Uros are very under rated
