At that size it is a gamble all around.

The easiest way to tell at that size is to get a photo of them side by side and compare which should be clear if they are the same size.

It is a nice looking animal but unless it is a fantastic deal you might want to really consider all options because if you have 2 males you are going to pay through the nose for a female although the males are easier to sell if you are lucky enough to get a couple with good color. The males are usually the nicer in color.

Also if you don't get a pair from the same source it can be very difficult a matching type from a different source.

>>I asked the person that I am dealing with to send more tail photos, so I should have some more by tonight. He was trading me a pair of cherry's but now I think it might be 2 males.

>>Thanks again for everyone's help. I will try to post more photos tonight or this weekend.
