It is not poop. I have seen it twice now.

Is this their sexual organ?

That is either the male sexual organ, or the very tip of the females egg tube.

If you can't ignore an insult, top it; if you can't top it, laugh it off; and if you can't laugh it off, it's probably deserved

My Lutino is showing the same thing, still nothing from Red. Even though they are acting like they wanna spawn, Iv had plenty of false alarms in the past though

It does not come down to a sharp tip/point... It is more blunt. I had read the male sexual organ has a sharp tip/point, while the female has a more blunt thicker tube for the eggs. If this is the case, then ash, is a female.

My gut is telling me though I have two females (rats)

I think the flower horn is a female too. At it's size, it has very little hump/kok, and I've read female flower horns have little hump/ on their head.

I may just have a bunch of females running around. Lol
