Could be. Tad small too vent though. Needs a few weeks or up to 1-2 months of growth to know better better I think.

Looking and developing male. At this point and from those photos it’s definitely leaning male.

Need to vent again to reconfirm
Sure but at this growth rate I wouldn’t stress it. Will be easy to accurately vent by 4-5 inches without even removing from tank. Give another 1-2 months. Needs time more than anything too sexually mature. Very soon you will know 100%. Still a bit too soon too confirm imo. Leaning male is my final answer at this point in time.
