If anyone here keeps this fish, I'm trying to get some info on them. I'd like to know how long it takes for the males to start showing the long fins and protruded nose. I've had mine for about a year. Got them as juveniles at 1 1/2".

Let me start off by saying that I have never kept nasutas.
With that said, how big are they now, how many do you have, and what are the tankmates (if any)?Scarecrow : I haven't got a brain... only straw.
Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right. -
I have three and they are 3-4" now. I'm keeping them with a pair of juvenile Black Calvus. It's a very peaceful combo so far."Ask not what your fish can do for you, but what you can do for your fish."Comment

you should be able to sex them at 4".the long fins will develop before the noseComment

Thanks for the info jughead. Sounds like you know your nasutas. Do the males and females look completely alike up until the fins start getting longer on the males? I'm trying to figure out if i have at least a male and female out of the three. If I don't, I want to get some more of these guys soon, if I can find them. Heck, I'd like to get some more either way!"Ask not what your fish can do for you, but what you can do for your fish."Comment
