I knew wrasse (here Macropharyngodon bipartitus/ Blue Star Leopard) can go from female to male but I never expected it would happen soo quickly. I started to notice something was up about a week ago, and already it is looking very different. I've had this fish for about two years as a female, she grew during that time but only in the last week or so did I notice color changes. Perhaps its all the staying at home but this is so exiting to me.
Has anyone else observed this happen so quickly?
Hoping this does not cause any issue with the Potters wrasse, but so far they still seem to pal around together, anyone had issues after wrasses transition genders?
