| Are there any experts here that can sex L134's? If so please help me out. I can tell some definite differences in these, but I'm still not sure how to sex them. If you would, please sex them from left to right. Thanks for any help you can give me.  |

| I have moved your post to I.D Laboratory.
It's hard to tell from your photo, clear shots of each individual fish would be better.
What size are they as sexing is difficult untill they are reaching maturity and the males start developing their odontodes on the pectoral fins and along the back half of the fish. |

| They are from 2 1/2 inches to 2 3/4 inches long. Next week when I clean the tank again, I'll try and catch them all again so that I can get individual pictures for you. Thanks |
