Females will be somewhat smaller than the males. The males and females will be similar in color, but the males is more intensly colored, especially on the "belly" area. The males also have slightly longer pelvic fins.
The only way to accurately know their age is to have spawned them yourself, but from the sizes given, yours are probably less than a year old.
