big one is girl small one is boy. If they are both small then one will change into a girl. you will see them shake and act weird for a while when its changing

WOw I saw mine shake and act funny one time a couple days after dosing calcium. Funny she is the bigger one. I have heard the bigger one is usually the female but never related the shaking to it. It is pretty cool that mine,and I am sure most of everyones are farm raised. please correct for the right term. I like having fish that are not pulled from the ocean..
