Good day, everyone! I'd like to get your opinions of possible gender mix on the following group of five wild caught . These are the same fish pictured in both images. They are roughly 2 inches to 2.25 inches total length (5.1 cm to 5.7 cm).
I am inexperienced with , but if I were to guess, I believe I've got two or three females in there based on body shape and (can we call it "nose") head shape.
Thank you for your opinions!

From first pic. Id say the top left 2 are female. The 2 across the bottom are male. And I'm unsure about the top right one but leaning on male.
