To be honest, It could still go either way. The body shape suggests Female, however, the colours and fin extensions suggest Male. I would wait a short while longer and you will produce more reliable results (moreso than people guessing).

Some closer, higher quality pictures would help too.

Nah a female has a shorter dorsal fin and doesn't extend as age as a males a males dorsal fin extends almost to the tip of the tail where a females doesnt

I say it could go either way, but IMO body shape and color suggests MALE, but fins suggest FEMALE. Just my take.

tough one! I have no clue based on these pics, need to either get better lighting photos, or wait for more maturity. Early guess would be female, but that's based on flimsy evidence
