    I have in fact been contacted by him. I'm not sure how long I have to wait to sex them but I'm betting both females as well. I will hopefully be sending him samples to find out what the deal is with them. It's getting exciting.

    Awesome! Congrats!

    Definitely either stored sperm or (check the offspring sex) if they're all females parthenogenesis! I'm glad someone mentioned this already. You should find out right away as this could be the first documentation of partenogenesis in ARB I believe. Really fantastic!

    I'm hoping it is! I'm going to sex them as soon as I get a chance. I'm not exactly sure how long I have to wait to sex them. Anyone know? I do t want to hurt the little ones.

    Technically you can sex RTB or balls as soon as they hatch some wait a couple days. But Im not sure for rainbows because they are born a little smaller. I would think it would be ok but dont know for a fact.
