Hello,
I purchased these two about a week ago hoping I got a pair. Guy at the LFS was not helpful and at first they looked identical but now based on what I read they actually may be a pair.
Here is what I am going by:
Male has longer spikes on the dorsal fin, longer extensions of the caudal fin, and seems a bit stockier.

Female has 2 dots on the side (actually heard that in one of the youtube videos), and seems slimmer.

Or am I just imagining things?
Please help me out.
PS.
apologies for the dirty and scratched glass. amazing what you can see through the lens.
