Why'd you bump within a few hours?

It's a male and can be water kok but can't tell right now. Water kok are usually the large kok flowerhorns.

A good diet shrimp and krill will bring out the red in him
 
Bump??? What is that??

Anyway good male and will have proportional kok too
That is a KML flowerhorn.

Here is another pic for reference.

Still early. How can you tell just by looking at it? Do female papillae stick out?

By observing its total look. His body shape to his kok suggests a male. I'm mainly going by what traits males have. It maybe female but to make sure you need to vent.

I have a male with no kok whatsoever the female has a bigger one than him lol but I knew it was a male because of how it looks. Its much bigger grows really fast and its papilla was pointed towards me and sharp.
