No there is no way. Usually takes angels to pair off and you can see their white ovipositor tube projecting from the vent. Tubes which appear sharp or pointed on the end (similar to the sharp end of a pencil) will be seen on male fish. Tubes which are more cylindrical (like the eraser of a pencil) are seen on female fish.
