Both fish are of similar size with red being a bit taller and blockier (fatter) so any chance i have a male and female?

Here are some photos!y1.jpgr1.jpgrvy.jpg

Thank you!
 
They both look male. What you want a pair for? Male parrots are sterile.

Bummer! - Thanks Aquatic....
I know male are sterile but i hoped i can pair the possible female from those parrots or a red texas (will post image soon) with my flowerhorn just for the sake of having a pair. no intentions to breed
 
When I buy unsexd bp and want a female I look for very little or no protrusion in the ventral area. Males stick out a little full time and females only start showing when breeding mode hits. Usually works for me. Hope im wrong though, good luck!
