Upload the pics to photobucket or imageshack and then post the
 
Ok thanks everyone. I was pretty certain on the female, but was unsure on the male as the front rays on the dorsal aren't very elongated
 
Yeah I'm going to have to agree as well. I know you are looking at the front of the dorsal fin, but not every fish is going to fit the profile. If you look at the anal fin it is more pointed than rounded (like the female), and if you were to push it flat to the fish it would extend longer than where the tail meets the body (sorry, don't know the name for this). Also, the back of the dorsal fin comes to more of a point where the female is rounded. And of course, the obvious lack of pink belly. Best of luck; excellent fish!
