My mandarin is in my tank for 5 months now, and it didn't eat anything except live BS, and then slowly accept frozen blood worm, and then accept pallets.I think is the time to choose a female mandarin now.
And I remember famales have a short dorsal fin, but seems not entirely true.
My mandarin had a short dorsal fin before, but after it got fat up, it has a longer dorsal fin now. So how ot recognize the female except dorsal fin difference.
Here is the video and pics.

here is the mandarin 4 months ago and its dorsal fin is short,
but now it becomes long dorsal fin.
