i am not an expert?!?!HELP!?

Answers:
I hope you don't have all these types of fish in the same tank ! Black Moores are members of the goldfish family and should not be kept with tropical fish. A general rule of thumb, as in all species, is the colours. The male fish tend to be a lot more colourful than the females. Another way to sex the fish is by checking the dorsal fin. The males has sort of a sharper look to it than the female.With the betas, the male will end up killing the female.
i have no clue i have even asked a vet and he could not even tell me the sex of mine
All the fish you names are egglayers. Therefore most of them are very hard to determine the sex of. Betas are easy however. Male bettas have brighter colors, and long flowing fins. Also they will fight eachother to the death. Females are dull colored, peaceful and have short fins. As for the black moor, they are a type of goldfish and if you are wondering about them breeding, don't worry. Most aquarium fish with the exception of livebearers will not breed easily unless the breeder knows what they are doing and spends a lot of time arranging the conditions. I hope this helps.
you can find that out easily. just go to a encyclopedia!
I also hope you dont have all those fish mixed together. Gouramis are in the same family as bettas and will KILL the betta. Black moors are goldfish and excrete too much ammonia and have different dietary requirements then tropical fish. Also grouamis and tigerbarbs are all semi aggressive and are going to beat the crap out of the betta, and black moor.
