Welcome aboard
I've read hear that the female has the squiggly lines in the face like that one in the pic.

Mostly coloration and size. Here's last video you can tell as female is guarding some fry. The male will be swimming around.
The smaller one that I have is more bluish gray and the bigger has greener tone so maybe the bigger one is male.
Males do have more green in their fins from what I've seen, body color seems to depend on light and mood. I've seen individuals of both genders get blue/purple in their scales in the right light. Might be different if you've raised enough of them but it's easier to tell apart as adults imo (to be captain obvious), when size, color, fins, and head shape are more distinct.
What size are yours? Not certain but I'm thinking the one on the right in the second couple of photos might be male, partly based on head and mouth. One on left, not sure.
