Help with sexing and bonus video

Just got two pairs of Apistogramma rositae (sp. "Harlekin") from Wet Spot last week and I'm having trouble sexing one of the pairs. Not sure if I have two females, two sub-dominant males duking it out for supremacy, or if it's split and they just aren't old enough. They are ~4cm long at the moment, and I can only seem to get pictures of one of them:

This one in the stills chases the other slightly smaller one around the tank whenever it sees it. Keeping an eye out for violence but nothing drastic yet.

Here's a video of the other pair, pretty obvious about the sexing of these ones:

The man in brown dropped them all off last Thursday.
