Solorensis boxfish gender Hello Bob or Lorenzo, I purchased a
boxfish through the mail. It was suppose to be a Whitley, male with
blue coloring. <Wowzah, very rare... I have only seen/photographed
females> I received a scribbled (solorensis) which is fine with me.
<A very nice species> But I cant tell if its male or female. Its
brown like the females, its only 2" in length. It has the bar
protruding toward the face like a male. When do the males turn blue?
Could this be a male that has not changed yet? <Depending on
"conditions" at two to three inches... Could well be.>
Either way it seams healthy and eating. Thanks, Darren |
