I have a male powder blue in my 30 gallon - he's the boss of the tank. I got another powder blue for my 20 gallon hoping that I found a female to put with my other gourami. Does it look like a female? She's still about half the size of my male so I don't know if he/she is fully developed. If I put them together, do you think my male would be aggressive towards her? First pic is my male. Second is the female...maybe

I love powder blues. Beautiful fish!
Question, how can you tell male from female?

The dorsal fin on the males is pointed while the females is rounded.
