Female Eclipse?

[andrew5859]

Hi all,
I have what I purchased to be a TS Eclipse but being new to sexing them I wanted to be sure! (Especially because it is in the tank with another female)
She(or he) is still young and only around 17 grams.
I looked at a few pics online but i'm skeptical.

Sorry for the not so great pictures...

Thanks!

And to the Moderators I wasnt exactly sure where to put this so please feel free to move it to the proper place!

It looks to me like there might be Hemipenal Bulge's which would be a male, but I would wait for a more experience user to chime in.

At 17 grams.Its too young to properly sex

Looks to me like a male, but still a little too small to confirm, as Roger said.

I am really hoping it is a female!
They are both growing at the same rate.
The pictures really dont show it well but there is a very slight V shape that was the reason that made me suspect male. I guess time will tell.

females also have a faint v shaped pores but they arnt as prominent as the males and of course the females dont have the Ahemm.. bulge

Thats why I think I will just have to wait until it gets a little older.....it does have the faint V but looking at it compared to my other female of the same, it is very noticeable.

This way seems like it would work great!! :main_thumbsup:
I did try this unfortunately it was a little hard to tell because it is a little older.

definitely looks like a male to me
i'd separate them until you're positive one way or the other to avoid any unwanted action

good luck!
