To Be honest Neo , I can't really tell. General shape is pushong more to the female side, but not sure about the pectorial fins.

Can you get any better pics?

Neo,
I don't want to get your hopes up but the fish in the center of Pic # 2 looks a lot like a female does she take a cave or not because females dont normally hangs inside the cave. good luck and I hope its a female.

Do you have 10 fish there. And all are male. I agree with zebra046, I think it is female. By the way, that male is huge, how big is he.
