    55G Stocking with Peacocks

    At that size yes they should be able to easily sex most species. For the online store I'm not sure. How close are you to Florida I know of a breeder out of Daytona that might ship direct to you if your in the southeast. Sent from my HTCEVODesign4G using Aquarium Advice mobile app
