Hi Guys, i got two new rams yesterday, i asked or one male and one female, but i think i got two males, ehat do you think?

The first one is male, the second looks male to me.. you should be careful as they look in quite poor condition. The sunken bellies could indicate worms, the shredded fins could result in fin-rot and they are quite susceptible to white spot. They will really appreciate your plants.

It's worth making sure how to sex fish before going to buy them

a female will have a red/purple belly which if in good health should be quite obvious.

i agree it looks like you have 2 x males.

will they fight or become aggressive to the other fish?

Unlikely, if the tank is 3+ft long. Individual tempers can make for exceptions, of course.

As was said above, I was told that females tend to have a pink/red belly.
