View source for Determining The Sex in Discus Fish

In juvenile fish, determining sex is almost impossible. It is only when they to help pair off that the chance arises to help in the determination of sex. Juvenile fish, both male and female, have a rounded dorsal fin, and is actually also not until they in order to mature that a difference can be detected. Since it is is never wise to excessively handle the fish, close observation is capable to aid the dog breeder.In Allnut Enterprises' King Discus Hatchery, for example, it is a basic process to determine who is who, as we also have these fish for a while, and can determine the sex of the pairs we own. This is be true in any hatchery. But to the uninitiated or casual observer, this would not be simple to do.

He may be larger than the female, his forehead is thicker, and we have seen that if the discus are a bit shy, the male will have a tendency to stay between the female and the observer.The dorsal fin of the male will be pointed, as well as the female's dorsal fin in order to be rounded. Note that in juvenile discus, this is not apparent.The breeding tube on the female, between the anus and anal fin, is broader and rounder when compared to the male, and will possess a blunt tip. The male, in turn, has a smaller, sharper breeding pontoon. Be aware that this is only evident during spawning, and may even be closely observed. In the said that the male discus fish will tend to have a less intense color and more pattern while the female usually be more colorful together with lesser pattern. I disagree, because too many variables are in place here, such as the health of the discus, water parameters, and feeding movement. <br />In an interesting article by Jeff Richard, he discusses an article from Diskus Brief, a German publication, which reports an enormously successful way of determine sex of a discus by using simple geometry.

Receive the Dorsal (Top) and Anal (bottom) fins and look where the fins slope down toward the Caudal (tail) fin . ensure you you're looking at the fins after they have curved back toward the tail. The Dorsal and Anal Fins become (almost) straight after the fins curve down (or up) toward the Caudal Fin . extend an imaginary line along this straight section of the 2 fins back toward the tail which just touches the Dorsal &amp; Anal Fins past the Caudal Fin. These two imaginary lines should intersect behind the fish. The at the centre of sexing the fish will be the the lines cross the Caudal fin. If they pass through the Caudal Fin, the fish is most likely a FEMALE. If they miss or just touch the Caudal Fin, then most likely it is really a MALE.&quot; Thanks, Jeff!Sexing Discus is difficult at most popular. The easiest way to do safe and sound to raise a group of at least six to eight discus, and permit them to pair off when ready.
