Lyretail Swords
Hi I have a triplet of Lyretail Swordfish, 2 female and a male. I have had them around a year. The females look pregnant but doesn't drop. I read that Lyretail's can be sterile. Is that true? If so what is the gravid spot look like pregnancy?

Re: Lyretail Swords
often the males sexual organ is too long and not functional and that causes them not to be able to breed correctly.

Re: Lyretail Swords
They may be in fact sterile, though it's very rare to find such fish. Add more Females to the mix to see what happens.
