Hi all .. have some pics of my Angels. Who can tell which one is male and which one is fem ? These two have paired up but I kinda wanna know which one is which. any help ?

Can't tell from the shots.
Which ever is wider in the lower half of the body is probably the female.
Also, the sex organs of the female will look like the tip of a waffle cone when they come out of the vent, while the males look like the end of a Sharpie pen.

the marble looks wider .. that is the one i thought to be the male because he ran my other angel out of the tank being pretty aggressive. Silver is pretty calm but i had a black lace that wanted to get into their business and was chased pretty ragged around the tank. I had to give him up, i didnt have another tank to put him in.

It does look like the darker angel is the male from those pics.
