I have a male keyhole. The males are larger and the fins are longer and pointed. My males dorsal fin has a long extension that goes to the end of his tail. If you can post a photo I could tell you what you have.

The fins can be an indication but not always a sure fire way.
If you have had the two for awhile, the male will grow faster and bigger.
Depending on how big they are a picture might help.

Thanks for your help, I will try to get a picture of them both posted within the next couple of days.
