    They are normally quite hard to sex like Angelfish or Discus sometimes to be sure you have to wait until they breed...

    But you are very lucky All 3 are showing their breeding tubes and I also can see 1 male - 2 females

    They are lovely!! Need a bit fattening up but I am sure you feed well as your other fish are in nice condition.

    Your male Cacatouides is going to show them who is boss over the next week but will mainly just chase them around a bit and fake charge at them. It should lessen after a week unless they swim into the cacatouides territory.
