Hello!! A FB group said this was a sleeper male and the seller (very reputable shop and importer of fish to the US) says it’s definitely a female.

Figured I’d let you people chime in as well. Thoughts?

I’d guess female too, but as far as i can see its a domestic strain and therefore hard to sex. Often females have been bred to have male characteristics.
