It can sometimes be hard to tell if they very young. The females will usually be smaller (if they all were born a the same time). If you have a good eye try to look a the anal fin, the one that is on the bottom toward the tail. Males will have a shorter one that is pointed and usually retracted toward the body. Females will have one that is a bit bigger and it will be like the other two fins on the belly. When the males get bigger there tail will start to extend on the bottom tip of the fin, which will eventually turn into a long "sword".
