Congratulations on a rare find it's a girl although it has some pelvic fin damage it can still breed.

good Luck

thanks guys,she does look like a girl,but i am not tottaly certain ofcourse.
it looks like either she is trying to enter a cave or she is trying to move a male out the cave to take the cave,i am not sure.
maybe some more members can give their opinion on the gender.
thanx

all you gotta look at is the face shape...

its a girl for sure.

its probably trying to go into the cave to spawn and males stopping her... 100% sign of breeding

thanx guys,
she does seem to be a nice big girl indeed, when she was trying to enter the alpha male's, he didnt let her in but he also injured her a bit so i am keeping up the waterchanges so she doesnt get any infections.
unbelieveble i have 6 adult females now and 3 males ,but i have a suspicion that the big alpha male is just being agresive in the tank ,but he isnt breeding and either does he give the other males a chance,but since last week his odontal spikes have grown, might this be a sign that he is finally getting ready maybe??
