i think its a female, check to see if theres an egg spot behind the ventrals

also the link in my sig shows the difference between females and male plaktas
 
id say female, there was a thread about telling male from female on here a while back, look back thru the pages and you will probobly find it.

she loogs quite fat and "eggy" to be a male
 
i'd say female. those front little dangly fins (have no idea what they're called) are too short to be a males.
 
your lil cutie screames "im a boy" in just about every way til i look at the belly and ventrals which says "im a girl" so im not much help this time but this lil one is very cute no matter what. only thing i can recoment is try to get a look or even a picture of its belly and look for the oviposter (egg spot) between its ventrals. that should help to determin the sex of this fish, but keep in mind that males can have this also (my latest addition does and he even looks a bit girly in comparison to his sister)
