LMAO Paul. One on top is female for sure, bottom one hard for me to tell looking away a little. Probably my favorites as well.

LOL, oh dont worry. The offspring would not be hard to sell. And they are pretty challenging to breed as well.
Paul could you get a picture of the other one facing the camera a bit more? I think the easiest way to tell is the jawline. The female has a fairly steeply slanted jaw and the male has a much fuller more rounded jaw (so he can carry the eggs).

LOL, my male almost always turns away from me like that. I got one good picture of him once when he was mouth brooding.
Well you'll find out soon enough. Either
1. they will just float around being buds like Thelma and Louise
2. WW whatever will break out once they get old enough if they are two males
3. you will see the female do her little happy quiver dance around the male one day and the next morning he will have a mouthful of eggs
Either 1 or 3 will work!! And the one that keeps turned toward the camera a bit really looks like a female to me.

Well it is a little misleading because the male is mouth brooding in that picture. The difference is not usually QUITE that striking.
The egg mass is amazing isn't it.
Great on the flake food. Mine wont eat that. The male eats pellets but the female wont
