Go fish yourself.
I've heard that it's virtually impossible to sex angels.
Even if they pair up and lay eggs, it could actually be two females. The only way to know is to have a spawning pair who actually end up with babies. (Or so I've heard).
Nice fish though!

That's what I've heard...how possible is that for someone with no experience in that matter?
That could be very hard buddy, it's not so frequent that this happens since he's sort of new in the tank, but any reason why you're asking for such a picture so I can check myself if it extends the fins?
I go by a couple different things and its hard to describe to someone but by going by that pic I would have to guess female. Now before everybody starts telling me they cant be sexed my record is 80%+/- at least when I can sit in front of the tank and look at them

The only way to accurately determine their genders is when they spawn. The shape of the tip of the ovipositor and its position helps determine which is male and which is female.
