I've always wondered if I should try adding a new female to give him a reason to show off more, or if you need to add a male in order to produce a tiny bit of competition...

A single female will turn male if kept alone ,and then turn into a supermale with time. A sub male with also turn into a supermale with time as well. I only have one supermale flame and he flashes all the time to my melanarus and then chases him around the tank lol. I would say give it time and your male should turn into a supermale.

Maybe dose kryptonite to accelerate the process?

Sorry for the hijack

I read that the supermale is caused by him being a heavy aggressor/pack leader in the tank.so being the only dominant fish in the aquarium is what I under stood
