George Barlow did research with A. Citrinellum and demonstrated sexual plasticity...meaning in some cases the male would change sex. Not likely in an aquarium...but it does happen.
would you say this is a male? im pretty sure it is...... anyways i might take the xiloaensis out and put him in a separate tank in a few days..
 
Looks like you may have a genuine pair to me. Adult female Midas look alot like males right down to the nuchal hump. Ive never seen Midas of the same sex go all the way to spawning. Ive seen Discus and Oscars do this but never Midas. Males are hyper aggressive. Cant see it happening.

Vent looks female to me as well. Too thick for a male.

Its also curved forward a bit which points to female. If the midas is a female, its a very high quality one.
