are those females. look like the male. i thought they were more pale than that? i found those too but was not sure if they are female.

looks like the males have a pink face, large dorsal, and also have a blue outline

i just found out why i have been getting confused on the looks. there are two variations. a peach one and a redfin one. rickbirdman i think the last pic you gave is a male peach. the pic that is the first one is a male red fin. i think. the mid is a sad looking peach female. check this site out has some good pics.

Thanks for that link hlama - I put a shortcut for it on my desktop - great photos

Just one note though, don't take the species labels as the last word. I saw some tukas labeled as pascalus & I think they had a Bartlet's that was really a bicolor
