Laguna Mermaid Pack... How Do they Do the Scales?

Can anyone tell me, if you have the product Laguna Mermaid for G3F, (https://www.daz3d.com/laguna-mermaid-fantasy-pack-for-genesis-3-female-s) how is it the smales are done? Is it on th skin texture or is it its own texture? I want to do a similar effect for G3M, and there is no existing product for G3M, plus I don't really care for anything else in the pack. Anyone know how to achieve this effect?

Scales are on the skin texture. Two different choices.
You looked at the skin texture itself, and it looks like that?
well its a skin texture that works alone on g3f herslf according to the description so if you have https://www.daz3d.com/genesis-3-uv-swap-male-and-female-base it should work on G3M too
I do not have the Laguna skin but certainly any other G3F skins work on G3M and vis versa with the UV sets.
Dayanara has a similar effect

It should be do able on any skin in photshop or equivalent using a scale brush.

Decide for yourself.
