Bicolor Male/Female

I am curious about identify the sex of my Bicolor Blenny. Someone in another forum suggested posting a thread here to see if anyone here might have an idea?

I currently have a blenny to which has a dark spot on the front of their dorsal fin, and dark vertical stripes running in the orange section of their body.

Is a normal pattern for a bicolor blenny or is it more characteristic of identifying the sex?

nicole... so sorry to hear about what happened with your blenny. Have you put ne more thought into trying to get a mated pair and try your hand at breeding them?

No, I'm full up of fish now for my tank. Considering how aggressive my pair of YWG's have gotten, I think a spawning pair of bicolors would probably be real hellraisers!
