In the first pic, the one on the lower left looks female, the one in the middle could be male.
The the last pic looks male.
In males the blue in the dorsal and anal fins often becomes elongated, in females the blue spots, stay spots.
In males the forehead is steeper, and more rounded in females.
These are how I made my determinations, although they are all quite young and age could changes these traits.
Notice on the female Andinoacara coerleopunctaus tending fry (close cousin to a G.T) the spots in the posterior of the dorsal remain as spots.
Now below, her mate, a males dorsal makings are more linear. Also the more pronounced forehead shape.

They may or may not be too young to spawn, and although they can recognize gender differences that may not be obvious to many human eyes.
In my spawning Andinoacara above, the female is only about 3", the male 5", although this species remains smaller than their S American cousins, G.T.s.
