Hi @young pleco dude,
Welcome to PlanetCatfish! Looking at your pics, I was wondering if they're old enough to breed. Based on the pectoral spines, I would have said two females, but I can see that one is thinner than the other, so I'm not really sure; you might have 1M:1F. I'm sure other people can do a better job than I.
Good luck! Cheers,
Eric
