is it male or female?

I'd like to see a more "normal" pic.
And if there are two Herichthys, I'd like to see both in the same shot, or at least two shots.
Something like the shot below, to me its easy to see the one on the left is female, the one on the right is obviously male.
I am not using color at all (because they are in spawning color, color cannot be used),
in the shot the head profile of the one on the left is more streamlined (female).
The male on the right has a obviously steeper profile, and more robust shape.
I am not good at venting certain species
If the OP does not have two, obvious outward sexually differences may not be apparent, so a expert at venting may be needed.
