L15 or???

I have had this group of seven catfish for 8 months now. I am thinking they are L015 or L209, definately Peckoltia. Any help on sexing the ones in the pics would be a bonus. http://i786.photobucket.com/albums/yy149/fairhand/DSC00456.jpg http://i786.photobucket.com/albums/yy149/fairhand/DSC00454.jpg ...
