swordtails

[dragoon459]

how can you tell the difference between male and female swordtials?
just wondering-i just still haven't figured it out

 

[SMSBrunetteGirl]

males have a long sword kinda thing sticking out at the end of their tails

Not all males will have the long sword at the end so you should look for an extended anal fin....it looks like a rod....I will try and post a picture to help you

Gonopodium is the word you're all looking for

Yes, but it takes to long to type (and always spell it wrong!).
