My Bolivian male or female?

Looking for some help in determining the sex of my ram as I would like to pick up another in the near future. From what I gather its a female but I want to make sure before purchasing another for my 55 gal. Any help is appreciated. Pics...

You (and Shawnie) are correct, it's a female.

Thanks for the replies. Ive had my ram for 4-5 months. I assume she is full grown as she really hasnt gotten any bigger since I got her. That being said, im not 100% how long it takes them to become full grown (pet store could of had her for months and months before I got her) but im pretty sure shes adult as she measures approximately 3 inches. I have been waiting for some clear indication to arise to tell me whether its male or female but nothing like that has happened.

So it seems like I was right and it is female?
