What type of fish do i have?

Question

I was wondering what the names of these fish are. I have to, they are rather flat and somewhat circular. They are a silvery grey color with 2 black stripes on either side. The are pretty small. Niether are any bigger than 1 inch but i just got them so i dont think that they are full grown. I was wondering what they are called and also- How can i tell the difference between a male and a female?? thanks!

Answer 1

I think Macarel/Salmon

Answer 2

post a pic and i might be able to tell

Answer 3

Females tend to be a bit plumper than males, but it's hard to tell.

Answer 4

Uhmm.. im not sure about what type, you can look it up on www.ask.com or another site like that. Male usually has some type of symbol on it, so I'm guessing that if it has two stripes it is a male.

Hope this helps!

please answers my question.
