I would say they are just a little too young to sex at the moment
No3 looks like a snub nose

I had the same idea looking at the pics.
Give them another half year and they should be sexable, i am pretty shure both sexes are present.

Hello
then I'll wait another 6 months to know their sex.
It leaves me the time to install a larger tank.
I'm not a good photograph. the fish were sometimes half out, this is not a good solution. I'll do better next time.
Bye

a friend made the same remark. what is it that I do? remove and put in another tank to prevent it from happening again?

Yes, you are absolutely right, it was stupid of me to get my zebras out of the water.

They are a bit young to sex. But my best guess is 1,4 & 6 are females. As others said, you have a good mix. Just be patience for another year or 2, your group should begin to spawn for you. Wish your best luck.

I bought 3 of them to a belgian and the 3 others to a french man. Both possessed zebra F0.
Today I just order their new tank. I will have it next month. And now,
I think and search the best conditions of life to put in. I have lots of ideas yet.
