most cuttle keepers see distinctive displays and characteristic behaviors when they're sexually mature, and find them very hard to sex before then. I don't know of anyone who's observed Metasepia enough to have seen if that works, though... if marinebio_guy got his metasepia studies underway, perhaps he'll chime in...?

IIUC, females are much larger than males.
