Sexing my JD & Managuense

[Brazzen1]

Hey guys, I was hoping that someone could help me sex my JD and Managuense. I'm thinking that the JD is a female because of all of the blue on the lower cheek, but I'm not 100%. Sorry for the quality.

Jd looks to be female, jag is still to small

Thanks, that's what I thought. How will I be able to tell about my jag & at what size?

Males more streamlined and are more spotted. Females will have a rounder abdomen and their markings are a little more solid. Size roughly 6-7 would be a good size to see. Here's my boy for reference

Thanks, he's really beautiful, about how big is he? The picture of my jag is about a month old, but when I got it it was the most colorful, largest and dominant one of the bunch. Now being in with my jd it's just a dull golden most of the time, except when feeding or when I first turn on the lights.

Mines roughly 13 or so

Sorry guys for the late update but here is some newer pictures of my managuense, hopefully someone can tell me what it is. BTW it's about 4"-4.5" now.
