Sexing G.Incisus is probably the easiest . The male is brightly red
color . female has no red at all more like Drab brown or olive green with
silvery reflection on the head and side .
I usually separate the female into the spawning tank ( 15 gal ) to
condition them. ionce you see the belly is full with eggs introduces the
male.
BTW Do not spawn your rainbow together with other species . The rainbow
WILL EASILY INTERBREED. My Boesmani and G.Inciscus regularly interbreed in
my comunity tank. But i never harvest the eggs from the comunity tank. I
don't want any Mutts (Hybrid). In my Opinion Hybrid are vitually worthless .
