females sometimes masquerade as males when there is not another hait in the tank. It's/your fishes profile is not particularly male, but much of its coloration is. Dominance is a factor in appearance.
Here was my female pretending to be male.
But a dominant male profile and dark mask is quite dramatic.
here again female. but slightly macho appearance
as soon as the male was returned to the tank she reverted to true female color
