Its still fairly young, so I wouldn't rule it out as male just yet, but it is shaping up to be female yes.
My male lenticulata has a semiclear band in his dorsal, where as my female has a full on white one. So the white band in the dorsal, especially at such small sizes, can be misleading. Either way you have a fantastic, simply gorgeous fish! I love it!
Crenicichla sp. 'atabapo II' gets a splotch in the dorsal for females, but generally its normally restricted to Saxatilis/Reticulata/Dwarf group pikes.
