Sold as gold saum, but I'm new to cichlids.

Fish one said to be "maybe male"

Fish two, said definitely male (I'm skeptical of being able sex this young.)

Both are about 2 inches SL.

I can get better pictures if it would help.

Thanks in advance.

both not acara, I don't think acaras have that orange trim on tail fin. The one I had only had the orange trim on dorsal.

It's a Goldsaum, and I'm pretty sure it's a female.
 
Hey thanks everyone for the quick replies.

Notho, both look female?

#2 looks like a definite female to me but its kinda hard to tell since there both still small

Sorry. To me, the first looks female, the second hints of male (but not sure). They're a bit too young to tell
