Its a bit small / bit of a bad pic to tell , but 95% of females have some colored scales in the belly and dorsal fin area , I think I can almost make them out in the pic.

Looks like a female to me. Most of the time it seems like the females have some orange in them on the belly area.

 

[Calamity]

I think its a female too. I see some hues of color on it

Female Convicts when full of eggs, their belly will turn bright reddish/orange. Only the belly, not the fins. And only when she has eggs is her belly red. You would definitely know if it is a female. It actually looks like little red spots all over the belly.
