The easiest way to sex a Salvini that I know is by looking at the gill.Females have a gill spot and males don't.Its quite pronounced in my limited experience.

The best methods of visually sexing salvini females is the black blotch on dorsal fin then followed by the presence of a black spot on the operculum.

Those fish looks like a male and female, here is one of my pairs where you can see the differences. Female in front and male in the rear.
