I read this morning in TFH mag, Jan 97, in " Franks New World" that Appisto are prone to PH induced sex change until the age of 33 days. It could be that there was this transformation do to differing water conditions. There are several salt water fishes that change sex with age and change in populations as well. It would be fascinating to find out what really caused this change in you situation. Happy Holidays all and peace be with you!
