How do I tell the difference between male and female dwarf gouramis? I bought two randomly and am wondering if I have two males or a pair since one keeps chasing the other.
Because I bought one that I thought it was a male because he had a pointier fin towards the back but was smaller and the one like yours kept picking on him every once in a while. And I found him dead n only had him for a week which I don't know why

All juveniles have rounded back fins. The males grow longer fins as they mature, females don't. And yes, sometimes there is fin damage because they fight. But the color difference is glaringly obvious with the DGs in spite of what a few misinformed individuals post online.
