I think due the lack of the tummy stripe this one is definately a girl right?

And a couple of thier home, I know I need to add some more plants and decorations but this is it at the moment

Eye wrinkles mean male.

Well, how many gallons is the tank cause if they are males I suggest getting females. If the tank is small then it may be necessary to move one.

I personally think they're males. There body shape seems slender, not so much thin but slender.
