BRISSY Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 You can sex them at about 6-7cm. Just hold them in your fingers and hold them on their side in the water. If they have bristles going UP their nose, male. If not, female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgw Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Good food, plenty of room and good water will be key for growth. Water changes as often as practical will be the go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lgw Posted December 20, 2014 Report Share Posted December 20, 2014 Keeping the temp up over 24 will help too, but you won't have to worry about that for months lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
