Hey everyone Ive seen this drawing of a "male and female" angelfish floating around as a reference to sexing. While I agree with most that the the drawing is inaccurate but I wanted to ask this. Have any of yoy ever had a female with for me ventrals? Ive only ever had males grow "forks" or "branches". Females have always been smooth for me at least.

I have had many females with split ventrals. That drawing you are referring to is total garbage. I wish it would disappear, but others hang onto it like a Bible.

I have both sexes with a divided ventral fins. I now only rely on breeding tubes to sex as other people have been wrong with some of my fish. A few weeks ago I bought a female from another breeder. Its a male now!
