Hi

I have two angelfish, both between 4-5 month old. Venom (marble) is the largest at about 3.5inches, Rocky is 3inches. Recently, they have been twitching and shaking at each other.

I am unable to tell of if is a mating or a dominance thing as I am unable to confidently sex the two, I think they are both males.

I have attached pics, what's peoples thoughts?

Thanks

I'd agree both males but wouldn't say 100% without seeing the ovipositors.

There is a bit of a shape of the breeding tubes.

Just now they are both very small and pointy on both, but assuming they will change as the fish grow, mature and develope
