Is this a male or female paradise fish?

I'm thinking male... but the picture isn't very good. I have a male paradise fish and he has long flowing fins. Like this:

But since then his fins has grown more, its longer and pointy at the ends.

The female won't have the same long flowing fins, it will be shorter. I have yet to find a female in the LFS around here. I always have come across the males.
I hope this helps some.

I'd guess female, but it'd only be a guess. Hard to say from that pic.

Jinx's fish is a male. This one's a female…



You can see the difference in the size and shape of the top and bottom fins.

Hope that helps…

I think I have to disagree, but all shown fish here seem like males to me. Juveniles are hard to tell males from fems.

This a semi adult male from my tank:

Look at the elongated caudal, dorsal and pelvic fins.

A female:

Less elongated fins, and the tail is shaped like a heart.
