By the looks of it, they are about 5-6 cm in size, and I can't say if they are all males or if there are some (or all) juvenile females in there. Let them grow for a bit, and I'm sure it's going to clear up.

Thanks Mats !

You're wright, they're about 5/6cm. So i will wait to know if they're male or female.
Hope i've both of them...
