How old are the babies because most livebearers are born female and some develop into males later

Some sites say its all in the Temp of the tank, dont know if thats true?

Nick..... ek dink jy's net te haastig..... as jy hulle net 'n tydjie gee gaan jy omtrent 35% mannetjies hê...... Mine is about 3 months old and new males are identified daily..... They all look like females when young (hoe oud is joune)??

They all look like females when they are young, give them time the males will develop later. In my experience the one who colour up first are usually the males. Dont think you have anything to be worried about.

Agreed with the above - it's the case in many fish where you won't be able to determine gender until a later stage in their lives.
