Hi there, i have to agree, they def look like L333's to me. I have a trio that look exactly like that.

From looking at the pics, i would say ( i am no expert, but did manage to sex mine correctly)
pic 1 = the one that is towards the bottom right is a male
pic 2 = female, owing to the shorter plump body and the thinner pectoral fins and lack of odonotodes


If you could get some more photos of the other 2, taken in exacly the same way as the last 2 that would be easier to sex them. But nonetheless, they are great looking plecs :D

it has been a long time since i have kept this fish, my guess would be 1male and 2 females. a couple of better pictures from directly above the specimens would be a bit of a help. kw
