Nice looking juvi Texas! I can't help you with sexing though, I'm no expert on the species.

I am no expert when it comes to these species but a Texas is a Cyano and they have smaller pearl spangles, here is a few of the carpinits's that i know of and there are other names used such as green, blue, red etc but here they are. Vontehillo, Escondido, Chariel, Lahillas, and im sure there is a few others but you can google those names and you will be able to see the differences between them. Good luck and im sure the experts will chime in soon
