If your yellow lab has no black stripe or very little then it is possibly a hybrid, since yellow labs should have the black dorsal stripe, whether they are male or female. Sometimes a female's will be lighter, but that is not always true.
The only for sure way to sex them is to vent them or watch them breed. Males will usually be larger and more aggressive, but sometimes females can be like that too.
Also, they are harem breeders and you should have several females per male or else the male will harass the one female. They get very large (over 3-4") and should be in a larger tank.
