| I picked the Kribs Kenny, the girl in Pets@Home didn't even know which were the Kribs. I went for the female, which, to me, is very female, with the less pointed fins, the more rounded belly and some rose colour on her tum lol I picked the male with the spot on the tale, the more pointed fins and a more slimline body. When I got home and looked on the net, I was convinced I had a male and female, until I came across an article saying that there has been so much incorrect breeding and so many variations of Kribs that the only true way of sexing was by the fin under the belly (can never remember the names of fins) that the underneath fin on the male is very pointed, mine both have more rounded fins under the belly. Need to add, these are young fish, they are only just about 1 and a half inches long. I have tried taking pics for you to see them, 202 to be exact but only a few are good enough to show you. What you think? This is what I would say is the female      My Male (hopefully)      And the 2 of them together  |

| yea from pics thats a pair u can just make out the egg spot on male. he has a bit of sunken belly pbly due to him not being dominante in dealers tank should fill out and colour up nicely as they mature the colours will improve on both |
