how do you tell if a young cichlid 2-3 inches is male or female at the pet store

Ummm...depends on which cichlid and if they are monomorphic (sexes look the same) or dimorphic (sexes are distinguishable).

It dedends on what kind it is. But most of the time you can't tell. Till they get a lot bigger.

Agreed, what type of cichlid are you looking to get?
