Thanks all for the quick replies been looking for a while and couldn't find it anywhere

 

[Sillyfishies]

Yes that's the one

I'd say it is a male too. Hard to tell if you just picked it up though. Females usually have the bright pink bellies like the one in the picture. Not always a fool-proof way of sexing them but usually works for me.

I have 2 a male and a female i know that. Thanks for the info though

You're going to want to rehome one of the males. Once the female chooses a male to pair up with, it's gonna be hell for the other male. Once breeding, female Kribs turn into evil little fish.

I only have one male and one female

Oops! I though that said "2 male and a female" Sorry about that.

Sorry, I was assuming since you didn't know the name of the fish you didn't know how to sex them. They are the opposite of most typical tropical fish. The males are less colorful than the females.

Good luck with your pair! They turn into nasty little critters when they spawn.
