Yes, in the pic above they both appear to be female.
That temporary color anomaly (males are usually light, females are usually dark ) may be dominance related.
I had a female haitiensus that would change colors (dominance) when her male was removed from the tank.
Her body shape would even change slightly.
!st her normal color and shape with a dominant male in the tank
After spawning, I would remove the male to give her a break.
