It's always best to buy a smaller one as your current male will become the domimant female now that your female is gone.
 
If you choose a very small one, it will inevitably become the male as your current male will change into a female.
 
If you choose a larger one, you run the risk of ending up with 2 females if your current male has already begin to change.
 
It takes patience though.  I paired a black and white with a black ice and the black and white is obviously the female now but they are only starting to show each other some interest.  They are not a couple yet and there is some friction still.  They are together for over 6 months now so that really can take a long time.
