I think the different....

1 = male, wide head shape, eyes further apart, longer cheek odonthodes
2 = female, narrow head shape, eyes close together
3 = male, probably dominant male, wide head shape, placing of eyes, long cheek odonthodes and longer odonthodes on the pectorial fins
4 = female, see above description

Here a picture of my breeding group of L66 (aged over 10 years old, wild caught) for comparison...

Then you will just have to wait and see in the next few months.
Tell us when you can see the difference between the fish and you know what's what :) Then we also know who's right :-/
