any way to sex blue/green chromis?

Question

I just got a group of chromis, and i was wondering how likely it is that they will spawn, and if it is likely, how to tell the difference in male/female. Thanks a lot!

Answer 1

I am unaware of any reliable way to sex them or many reports of them breeding in captivity. If you have a group of 5-6 odds are extremely high you have both sexes. Here's the best 2 links I could find on the subject

Hope that helps and best of luck!
