Question
Hey Ron I have a couple of fish and I'd like to know how to tell them apart{like wich are males and wich are females}. I have 2 bala sharks 2 red rainbow sharks 2 tiger barbs and 4 algae eaters. Also I have a queation about the agae chips if my other fish eat it wat will happen?

Answer
Hi Jesus,
 It is fine for any fish to eat the algae chips/wafers.

 Unfortunately, I cannot tell you how to tell the sexes of those fishes. Sorry. Keep in mind that for some fishes, it is really difficult or even impossible for us to tell the sexes apart.
