I fed them 3x last night (2x Mike Reed's No Bs and then 
some crushed flake). I also did a water change and still 
the odd male tore into the other! Granted, not as 
agressively as before. It's now mostly posturing.

From what size can they be sexed and and what are the 
tell tail signs? Fin colour? I'm curious as common sense 
says all my little guys are male! Fortunately I gave 
half the brood to a friend and he says their are a few 
females.
