Sexing Hypancistrus sp. (L270)

I have 2 chocolate zebra hypans and have no idea how to sex them. I was thinking I should take some pics and post them here for all you catfish fiends out there to determine what they are. What pics/angles/info do you need? I'll try to get some pics of them over the next few days.
