Can anyone let me know if this is a female dwarf gourami please?

She’s paired with the male also pictured (one with lots of red I know is the male)

Thank you!!

the one with lots of red in the tail is male and the little fat one is the female.

Thank you!! I’ve been told they’re both male because she has such bright colours in her which is unheard of for a female and got worried!

her colour is because of her variety of dwarf gourami. She is a coral blue dwarf gourami. But she is definitely female. She has much more silver on her belly, her colours are nowhere near as intense as the males and she has a huge gut full of eggs. And she has shorter more rounded fins compared to the male.
