So a couple weeks ago I bought a lamark's angel from my LFS. Now I want to buy another so that I can try and pair them. I have seen online that the males have long tail fins and a yellow mark on their head. Mine has neither, so if I buy another that is similar to mine but smaller will mine turn into a male and the smaller one remain female?

Thanks.
 
I believe all Genicanthus can change sexes, but haven't seen it myself. All the Lamarcks I've seen were females. Easiest way to tell is the top stripe on the females drop down to the bottom near the tail, while the top stripe doesn't drop on males.
