Best Answer

Without doing a scale ring count under a microscope it is not possible to accurately state a fishes age. In the case of a fighting fish (Betta splendens) they are short lived anyway and are usually sold at around 6 months old when their fins are fully developed. They are getting old by 2 years and usually only live to around 5 years.

ScalesFish scales (ctenoid scale) have yearly growth rings (just like trees), so the number of rings is the number of years.

What does the pattern on a boy turtle look like?

The sex of a turtle is not determined by its pattern. It is usually determined by the shape of the underside of the shell. A male turtle usually has a somewhat concave bottom shell, while a female turtle's bottom shell is more flat. Another method to determine the sex of a turtle is by the shape of the tail. The tail of a male is usually wider and "stubbier" than that of a female turtle. See link below for further information. It includes pictures demonstrating the differences between male and female turtles/tortoises.

How to tell an age of turtle?

A lot of people would tell you that you know how old a turtle is by counting the boxes on its shell, but it isn't true. I guess the only way to know is to know when it was born. To check it out yourself, you can go to www.yourturtle.wetpaint.com:)
