male, based on the egg spots and fin color. most females have clear fins, no egg spots, and a silver/metallic olive (not yellow) body
 
Compare yours to my female obliquiden zebra. If its a male, it will have a yellow/orange belly

Yours doesn't really look like a obliquiden zebra though.

Yup...I'm really doubting its a astatotilapia latifasciata, yours has one more bar on the body and also the bars aren't as wide. Plus there is no dark spot on the caudal fin, whereas Obliquiden zebras have a dark spot on their caudal fin
