I have had these guys about 6 months and am unsure of their sex. From what I could find they all look female to me, but was hoping someone with more experience can maybe shed some light for me.

The first two pictures are both of the same fish. The last photo is of the third fish.

Thanks,

The breeding tubes of both would be the best way. The females tube will be square and pointed down and the males tube will more pointed up towards the back . Some ID Bolivian with the top fin rays . Tbh I am new to Bolivian about a month now but have experience with Blue Rams.
 
What size tank is this and what is the full stock? More pictures? I've been wanting to do a Bolivian community for a while now.
