Picked up 3 DPs today on the way home from work. They are in a 55 with a few friends and some ghost shrimp.
It looks like we got 1 male and 2 female. 1 of them had a very clear dark line down the center of his belly during transport and while following one of the others around.....
These little guys are hard to take decent pics of! Hope these turned out ok...

My goodnes they are GREAT pics! need you to come and photograph my two DP's please! lol only just got pic of one so far!
Welcome to the forum - I'm new too and the proud owner of 2 DP's - one def male the other not sure yet.
Hope to see you around. What 'friends' are your DP's in with?
I agree with everyone else, you've taken some fantastic photos, so clear and so close! I think they are excellent photos, and I think your little guys will be very happy in their new home.
And let me take this time to welcome you to the forum, as I don't recall having done that previously!
Ah I love the one where he's eyeing up the ghost shrimp Very nice photos and even better that you got them off a non-SLR camera
I'm thinking you have all males, but they are very young yet so not 100% sure. Yellow on the bellies and tails is one of the first signs a male shows, along with the stripe going along the body into the tail.
