WTB - Livestock Female Spotted Mandarin

[DragonetShepherd]

Hello! I'm in search of a girlfriend for my Spotted Mandarin.

My fish is fat and happy, but I think he'd be even happier with a new friend.

Thank you for your time!

Is that a picture of your current fish? It looks like a female as the front dorsal fin looks small but can't tell as male spotted mandarins don't have nearly as pronounced a front dorsal fin as the blue/psychedelic mandarins!

Yes, but I'm 99% sure it's a boy! I got the fish at maybe 1" long when its sex was ambiguous and named it Mandy. The fish is now about 2", and I noticed the dorsal fin spike growing rapidly over the past few weeks. It's difficult to tell in the photo above but more obvious when he decides to fully raise his flag.
