is there a way to tell just by looking if a gold fish is male or female?

Question

we have a tank filled with huge feeder comet goldfish

Answer 1

How about Goldie-Lox.

Male Goldfish -- USUALLY have "tubercules" raised dots, on their gill plates (hmm, is this "goldfish 'five-o'clock shadow?'") and also on the edges of their pectoral (front) fins. Sometimes they DON'T!! But they're still boy fish!! If they don't show any tubercules, observe them from the rear, and look for symmetrical hips, both sides (even if it is a round-bodied fish). Look for aggressive behavior usually the males are aggressive, but not always!! sweet feminine, female Sarassy was one of the "white sharks of the goldfish kingdom".


Female Goldfish -- the females usually have one hip bigger than the other (for stowing the eggs), and/or lumpy rear ends. Sorry fishgals Usually demonstrate sweet and feminine behavior honest, I'm not being sexist. Dainty at times so cute!!!!

Answer 2

it somewhat is almost yet no longer somewhat impossible. you could seem for some issues, the adult males (in basic terms during breeding season) gets some white spots on the gill section, it seems corresponding to ich. The adult males would be chasing the girls besides. The male could have an anus that stands proud somewhat better than the female. the female will commonly be larger besides. I rather doubt which you would be able to surely intercourse those fish, i will even yet it somewhat isn't any longer common to describe how precisely I do it and different goldfish breeders and experts will say a similar. good success....Gup.

Answer 3

Take it out tank ~n~ look for the 2 slits, that means its a female, if it only has one then it is a male.

Answer 4

Look at their vents, where the poo comes out, the males will have an innie and the females will have an outie. Check this link out, there are pics to help you out. http://www.bristol-aquarists.org.uk/goldfish/info/sexing-fs.htm
