red fastae male or female? HELP!

[Cichlidholic]

Male Festae. The spangling in the unpaired fins and tail look male. Also, he is starting to turn green and has green/blue scales. Females start to run orange/red/green with black stripes and lose the spangling.

And yes, this is clearly a festae.

It is a male festae for sure!!!!!! Here are a couple of pics of the male that I had for sale!! The first pic is when I brought him home and he was getting acclamated to the tank, and then WOW the 2nd pic speaks for itself. He will change colors from red to yellow with bars, and just yellow.

Great fish!!!! Wish I did not have to sell mine!!!!!!
