Is my Convict a Female?

[ricomambo]

I'm planning to breed Convicts to for feeders. Last weekend, I went to PetSmart and saw two of them with a big belly - thought they were female. After a few days in the tank, I'm starting to think that I might have gotten two males instead.

Please see attached pictures I took from my phonecam (sorry if a little blurry), can someone help me ID if male or female? Much appreciated!

Looks male to me but it's hard to be sure from those pics

Females have an orange belly

Thank you for the responses. Going by this forum and what I read about Convicts online, looks like I did get 2 males. Now I need to find some females to get my feeder factory to work...
