How to tell if Texas Cichlid is male or female, at juvinile age?

The friendliest place on the web for anyone with an interest in aquariums or fish keeping!
If you have answers, please help by responding to the unanswered posts.
Super green texas is simply a marketing ploy to try and raise the price of the fish in question. It's a Herichthys carpintis Vontehillo(one collection point of five).

Thank you so much for your help.
Can I ask some more questions?

1. What does "one collection point of five" mean?
2. Are there any main differences between the texas family cichlids? (size, colour, water conditions, temperment etc etc)
3. Can u tell if its male or female? Or is it too young?

Thank you :)

A collection point is where the original fish are collected from usually local spot such as a river or town, with Herichthys carpintis there are Rio Tamuin, Rio verde, El salto, Tempoal, Lago . There are more than five in total but the top four are Chariel, Lahillas, Vontehillo, and Escondido.

There are really no differences between Hericthys carpintis and cyanoguttatus, they grow around the same size, have the same temperament, and come from similar water conditions.

Your fish is to small to sex at this time but the females usually have a black blotch on the dorsal.
