Lamarck angel - female to male
I've had this lamarck angel about 4 yrs. Looks like she decided to turn into a male.
Dec 2, 2011 Jan 22, 2012 now with a yellow spot on his forehead and black pectoral fins.

Wow, beautiful pics and fish. I like the black pelvic fins, never noticed those on the males before. Love your shrooms as well.

Had to get rid of mine, once it turned male... Became very aggressive and caused my other Genicanthus males (Bellus & Zebra) to revert back to females... within weeks of removing it, the Bellus became a male, still waiting for Zebra!

I had two female zebras and introduced a smaller male zebra. The larger female is scaring him back to a female. Does this mean the dominate female might become a male?

Great looking fish. What are you feeding it?

Thanks.
It's eats everything I feed the other fish. Nori, NLS pellets, Ocean Nutrition pellets and a homemade frozen seafood smorgasbord. It doesn't touch any of my corals.
