Help sexing Salvini cichlids?

[Galactik]

I'm trying to sex these little guys and wanted to get some opinions as I'm not very familiar with this species.

They're currently 2 - 2. 5 inches and starting to show some color.

I noticed I have two that look pretty much identical, they are the smaller 2 of the 3 I have and both have more yellow on them as well as a dark spot on their dorsal fins.

Is this a female?



Then I have this one who I believe might be a male? Hes the biggest one. Seems more assertive, has much more blue specks through the body and I think the fins look sharper. This one does not have the black spot on the dorsal.



I'll see if I can get better pictures. I was in the middle of a water change and they were hiding a lot.

Thanks!

Females have the spot in the dorsal fin, also a black spot on her gill cover.



See the spot on the gill cover, females only have this.

Agreee.
In Your (OP) 1st pic appears to be a female, and in the 2nd pic the fish on the right appears male.

Excellent!

Thank you so much, that helps a lot. Seems like I got two females and a male then.

Now I'm hoping one of them pairs up!

I know I know, I'm getting greedy here haha
