I paid $30 for 4 EBJD frys about 3/4" big from 74ray and they are doing great, they eat everything also! My 4" EBJD only will eat algae wafers and ocassionaly will eat some Hikari sinking pellets. Here is a pic of him/her, paid $20 when it was 1 1/2".
Pic is about 2 months old.

Nice looking fish. As to your question, ebjds are almost impossible to sex just by looking. It's guesswork at best. The only reliable way I know of is venting. Most of the time, the only way to tell is by who they hook up with.
 
I agree, they are tough to sex, though I would have guessed male

my LFS is selling one that looks just like yours, for $50 . . . it has been sitting at that price for the last six weeks or so . . . it's just not going to sell at that price, they're going to have to drop it to like $35 if they want to move it . . .
 
Nice! I just scored 2 inch long guys from the LFS for $24.99 yesterday. Can't wait til they get that size.
