Well out of this group, I'm guessing on the last picture, the one on the left is a female and the two in the front are males, looking at the color, unless it's just the lighting subduing the colors on the one on the left. That would seem to support the dimorphic look this species appears to have if the left one is a female.

Actually that is one of the new flamebacks. With these guys the females also have the blotching. The way to tell difference is the males will have blue and red on their fins. The guy I got them from said females are harder to tell because they are marked the same and could just be a sub-dominent male. I so far think I have 2m and 5f of these Zue Island but the could change. Still no color showing on the new flamebacks...I sure hope there is a male in there.

I did not notice that the fish on the left was a different fish species either. Thanks for the education Brenda! Carl

Beautiful! I like their eyes, for some reason the way their eyes look makes them look nervous. Just me.

WOW, these are beautiful fish!! ;D Carl Thanks Carl...And yes they are getting more and more beautiful. Look at the difference between these pics and the ones from 2 weeks ago...big difference at least I think so. They are only little so I imagine they'll get even prettier. I am really liking these guys.

I figured out how to get clearer pics on my camera. I have to have the mode on something other than auto. Unfortuantely, that's when the battery needed to be charged and then the charger broke. No more pics for me until that's fixed. It's a minor fix so my neighbors Rick or Theresa can probably fix it. The bad news is they will probably take their a while knowing them. Oh well..
