Default P. crabro

I have a P. crabro, which I always thought was a female based on the low
aggression factor. Lately, however, the fish is becoming more aggressive.
I have a male Kenyi that used to chase this crabro, but now the crabro is
chasing the Kenyi (and the other two cichlids in the tank). The crabro is
also turning "black" a lot more than it used to. The fish is darker all the
time now, but at times I can hardly see any of the yellow stripes (spots)
except for the top portion of the fish. Is this a good indication the
crabro might be a male?

Ooh, I know this one! Yep, that's a male.. they get all dark when they're
angry & territorial-like...
