Sexing hatchetfish can be challenging due to their similar physical appearances. Males typically have more elongated bodies and fins, while females tend to be rounder and fuller, especially when carrying eggs. Observing behavior during breeding, where males display more vibrant colors and engage in courtship rituals, can also provide clues. Additionally, examining the shape of the belly can help, as females often exhibit a noticeable bulge when ready to spawn.
