They are commonly though of as not sexable except by venting. I suppose body shape and size might be used as a guide, but is probably not reliable.

Although finnage is normally used for several cichlids I have never heard of it being used for uaru. Nor have I heard or seen any colour variation. But it is often a sign of a female in general (rounded fins) especially if combined with a more rounded body when settled down.

They are lovely fish.

I used to have Uaru, and I only knew the sex of them when they spawned, other than that I was unable to see any physical differences.

Nice fish, but like people have said no easy way of sexing them.

By the way it's Uaru not araru
