Default Livebearer Gendering

Hi, i have made this topic so beginers could understand how to successfully gender a livebearer. Alot of you probably think this picture i made is useless, but for confused beginners it wont. Sry if the pic is werid or distorted, i will try to fix it somehow. You can prolly see from the pics that males have a lot of nicer colors and a sharper fin on their underside, while the females have duller colors and a large fin on thier underside. I hope you can understand this.

I'll post a pic of one of my breeder Allred Guppy females.. Look at the fins on the underside of the fish. The anal fin on females is fan shaped, males are pointed..
