There are a few ways to determine the gender of a pleco fish. One way is to look at the shape of their genital papilla, which is a small tube near their vent. Males typically have a longer and more pointed papilla compared to females. Another way is to observe their behavior during breeding season, as males may exhibit more aggressive or territorial behavior. Additionally, some species of plecos may have distinct physical characteristics that differ between males and females, such as bristle growth on their face or body shape.
