I don't even believe in sex reversal in livebearers, where several people
said it were possible (I have an explanation and the scientific articles
state my point of view).

Well, sex reversal is observed in damselfishes (Amphiprion et al.),
were it really occurs. I don't think that it is even theoretically possible
in rainbowfish.
