I cant help much; especially without seeing all three next to each other. What makes you so sure the first is a male? Sounds like you've got some experience with apistos so I'm sure this is not something you dont already know; but depending on their age it can be almost impossible to sex them.
Apistogramma sexing

I picked up a trio of new apistos this past Sunday. Store said they are hongsloi though I don't know if I trust their ID as I've seen them gets lots of stuff wrong. Anyway I am more worried about the sexing than the species. One is a definite male:

He has more color than is showing in my quick cell phone shots, but you get the idea.
As for the two possible females I picked up I am used to female apistos looking a certain way and these don't. I don't have any experience with hongsloi though and it could be a color morph thing. If these aren't females then I don't think they has any. Not the best shots unfortunately:

Those of you with more experience/better knowledge, what do you think?
