How can I tell a adult male apart from a female?

[seagate80]

Hi everyone,
I am wondering how one can tell a adult male discus apart from a female. I have 10 discus, all of them have paired up except for two. I rekon these two unpaired discus are males, but I dont really know. Advice?

Thanks

No matter how hard i try i still find it difficult.
the only sure thing is when they spawn, i can watch the female lay the eggs and the male fertilise them.

Andrew Soh's book: Discus, the naked truth has an excellent chapter on sexing discus.
