Apistogramma Borellii problem

Hi, How are you all ? Hope everything is good.
I have got two questions. Would be great if you can help me out on them.
1) I have a dozen juvenile borellii in a 35gal long tank. They are eating properly and are active.Unfortunately one or two keep dying once a week or so. I have currently ended up with 6 out of the 12. The fish have been in the tank for about 1.5 month now. Tank parameters are normal (RO water, ph-7, hardness 110ppm, nitrates <8). I am unable to find why my fish are dying without any reason even though they are eating normally.
2)The size of the borellis is about an inch now and all of them are showing a golden tinge on the body. Is it a possibility that i ended up with all females or shall i wait till they grow up a bit?
Thanks and Regards
icecube
