Can this haitiensis be sexed yet?

[robmcd]

It is about 4'' and is the dominant haitian of 3. I started with 7, but you know, this happens and that happens and the fish pictured is killing its siblings one by one, weve all heard the story before. Thanks in advance for all help.

Too young to be sexed me thinks

I've seen Hait's 4" that can be sexed. These photos though are not definitive. Does it sometimes go real dark except for it's face? If so, it's probably a female. If not...possibly a male. The lack of a nucchal hump and the dark color in the photo suggests female, but I wouldn't guarentee it.

+1 I'm unsure but polo has had them and bred them so I go with his vote..

All my males had humps by 3-4". Females aren't extremely dark unless they are in breeding dress. My ~6" female is usually not all black all the time. My guess would be that your fish is a female.
