Swordtails Doing Fine

[Rainbowneil]

Just a wee update on my swordtail fry. Managed to scoop them up and place them in my breeding box. Got 11 in total and they are doing fine. All seem to be eating well and swimming about happily

Thanks guys. Hopefully they survive. The rainbow cichlids keep going up for a closer look.

How long does it usually take till you can sex them?

 

[5teady_2012]

4-8 weeks before you can sex them, this is when the gonopdium will grow on the male.

On the feamle there is a fin (The anal fin)
