Surtac Posted July 25, 2013 Report Share Posted July 25, 2013 Oscars are almost impossible to sex until they are actually breeding. You can sex them by looking at there breeding tubes. The males is pointed & the females is more rounded. Maybe someone else on here can explain it a bit better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daharkazangel Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Pics of the vent would be best, but if you want to show him off go for it Oscars are near impossible to sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valvebounce Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Best way to get a vent pic? Without stressing him out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goneself Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 Best way to get a vent pic? Without stressing him out? Take it out and turn it over. Stress free? Not gonna happen. Oscars are as bad at sexing each other as we are at sexing them, chances are he'll smack a female around as much as he would another male. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
