I'm not sure how to tell the difference between male and female.
Please help me out.
Also if you could inform me on how too decipher.
Please and thank you.

Females have like blotches of a blueish/teal color under their mouth and males will just have the dots near his eyes.

Another question, he is 2, if I make sure I have a female and add her to the tank. Do you think there will be issues, or he'll be open to a new addition?

Just posting another picture because I have a decent one now

Space might be a little tight, but since you want a female it could be alright
