AP, Thanks for your link, I also missed that thread. Nice photos also.

There seems no easy way to sex the PS other than aggression or disstended bellies. Both male and females are very colorful. My PS had to build their own nests. "The old fashion way".

BTW finally getting some rain, although not down pours, but cooling off the water temps. I hooked up the air pump to the old air line last night, (figured it won't freeze up now) to add more DO to the water since it is so low and dirty.
