I bought these four from my LFS a couple of months ago. They only had 4 otherwise I would have got more - and I will get more as soon as I can find some. Now that they've grown up a bit I'm thinking all four of them might be males. Anybody have experience with these guys and can tell me if they're all boys?

Absolute manly men there. Females have largely clear fins that are shorter, and their bodies are a tiny bit rounder.
 
Thank you so much! I had a bad feeling this was a boy's club 😔
I called my LFS and they said they'd get some more Clown Killis this weekend. I'm thinking about maybe returning 2 of my boys, and getting 6 new ones - and hope that there'll be at least a few girls among them. I hate returning fish - I wouldn't do that to a dog or cat I adopted but at the same time I don't know how happy they are with just boys around. Will they be fine if I kept them and just added more (which potentially might be all boys as well)?
