Hey could anyone tell me whether this ram is male or female?
Some of the other rams got in the photo XP I'm talking about the big, darker one :)

I'm sorry, I just had to laugh. This is the only site where a title like "ram sexing" isn't thought of as pornographic!!! lmbo
 
Haha once I was searching how to sex a few fish on my mums computer and later she saw her history -.-
Let's say I got 'the talk' that day! Haha
 
It's a male, the 1st few rays at the front of the dorsal only grow that long on a male and the females are the ones with a red flash on their belly. 1st pic is male and 2nd is female.

Thankyou :)
Do you know about what size they'd get to before they'll breed?
 
No sorry, not very big tho my female was just over an inch I think.
 
Oh cool I just bought them yesterday :( they're so pretty! I just love them!
 
Yea that are a great fish! Stunning colours and 1 of the best characters in any of the smaller fish, hope it all goes well :)
