This is my Red Turq, I think it is a female.
I tried to get a pic of it's breeding tube, so can I have some opinions on what sex it is?

I would guess a female judging by the little tube that is shown ...

But could we have a picture with no flash, and no colour alterations at all?

Excellent photo Tara!

If possible a full body shot would be good, very tricky to tell.

what a beautiful fish and photo

is the tube you are all refering to the little lump just to the right of the lower fins?

Tara, going by that pic, I'd say female.

Does the tube get any larger than that?
