I have recently gotten a blue hippo tang. My LFS kept calling it a her. How do I know if its a male or female?

dont think you can tell by looking at them.its probably just a personal preference go around and see if she calls all the fish a her.

haha, well that's the thing, they only call the BHT a she, and the rest either 'he' or 'they/them'
it doesn't really matter to me, i just didn't want to ignorantly call it a she when i really had no idea!

Just like how do you tell the --- of an automobile? He keeps calling his car a "her" but how do you tell?
