Still too small to make a good guess really...but if I had to give an answer right now, I'd say two males.

I would agree with Plastic, looking at the pecs I would say two males also!

I agree, looks like two males.... sorry... the one on pic 2 and 3 are definately a male. There is however a slight small tiny chanse that pic nr 4 and 5 is a hairy female? Let's wait and hear what Rob has to say, he can usually spot them! :D

(isn't that unusual the crescent the male has at the base of his dorsal fin :) very nice)

First one is defintely a male - broad head and large pelvic fins.

Second one is a female - it has smaller pelvic fins and a more rounded head, and it seems it's body is more plumper than the male above.
