Body, fin and head shape looks like a girl to me, but it would help a great deal if you could post a picture where the odontodes show better :)

Body and head shape turns me in direction of a female, altso the thin pectoral fins, and the lack of odontodes on pectoral fins.

My quess is definatly female.

Letigreholland,

It is a FEMALE. 100% sure. The body shape gives it away, even without looking at the odontodes on the cheek or pectoral fin in your first picture. Your close up just makes me 200 % sure. Money back guarantee !!!!!

Regards,
Des.
