I'm no expert in sexing and have been wrong couple of times but judging from the top view. I think you have a pair, fish 1 is a male and fish 2 is a female. I've came to the conclusion that the head shape and hair on the pectoral fins and the second fish looked a little bit plum across the body as well.

Hope this help.

Cheers
