Male pearl gouramis are easy to distinguish from females, because they have red on their throats. This only applies to mature fish though, and younger specimens are tough to sex.

Thank you Sirbooks,

I checked again, but they must be fairly young, still. I just notice that one is more agressive than the other, but other than that, they both get along with each other.
