Nice 2 yr olds. Good job at getting them this big so far. Side views are all male fish.

any info on sexing BG? I know the scales black tipped on forhead is one way but how reliable is that? Whats the easiest way.Also about how long before they reach maximum maturity? I know that's a relative term, but just a ballpark idea...Thanks, David.
