better angles to sex GT

[Taomofo]

I had some mixed answers last time so I tried to take some better pictures with better angles if anybody is bored and wants to give it a shot

Im still so confused... It's just under 3 inches only but has really good coloring, the pictures don't even do the colors justice.

Well here it is!

male for sure , besides just the fins the females don't have as bright colouration.

it's too early to tell right now.
once it grows another inch or two it will be much easier to sex.
by five or six inches you should be able to tell easily, three inches is too early.

this is what my female looked like around 4"...pretty similar to yours.
no pictures of my male when he was that size.
