Male or female dovii

Kind of hard to be definitive with an in-bag picture, but it does look to have spotting below the lateral line. Do you have any in-tank shots? If the fish has noticeable spotting in the fins as well, then I'd lean towards male.

Female, imo no speckling above lateral line, no speckling on dorsal or anal fins, and ball joints
 
Honestly, if it's only 3" it's probably too early to tell. I'd wait another inch to an inch and a half, then post a new pic. We should be able to tell much more reliably at 4-4.5".
