Pic of male and female of dwarf gourami will help me. (Powder blue or red lily gourami)
 
Well.....I used to keep Dwarf Gouramis, and the fellas are silver to gray color. You will definitely be able to tell the males from the females because of their bright color. :)
 
All the young are silver until they mature, at which time the males start to show some colour.

Under ideal conditions they are sexually mature at 3 months old and you can identify males and females then. However, if they aren't grown under ideal conditions, it can take 6-8 months or more before they mature sexually and show colour differences.

Keep the water warm (28C).
Do big regular water changes.
Feed them good quality food at least 3 times a day and they should grow pretty quickly. :)
