I thought FHs were a hybrid of several CAs? They might pair up (still unlikely), but I couldn't see any viable offspring being produced (unless I am wrong about FHs of course).

I couldn't tell you to be honest. Like I said I don't know much of fhs. All I know is they are pure hybrids. But in my eyes it's a 50/50 chance. Op I would watch the fh for aggression since she is a lot smaller then the fh. If it is a male that is.

I'm in the same boat on the lack of FH knowledge. LOL
I also agree to watch out for aggression issues. FHs are known to be mean regardless of gender, but males are still worse, especially if he sees her as a possible mate, but she doesn't see him in the same way.

Since it's a female festae, they tend to grow more slowly as a general rule. I doubt that its seriously or permanently stunted. Size of the tank has less to do with growth than proper care like frequent water changes, or lack of stress.
On a side note....
Pure hybrid is a bit of an oxymoron, purity only comes in a non hybrid blood line, such as festae only breeding with festae.
Hybrids are mutts, and are the antithesis of pure.

I checked on them when I went home for a brief min before I left and they seem to be getting along just fine. I am aware that either one can snap at anytime though. Thanks for everyone's help

Awesome looking fish! You got a good discount! FREE! And even if it is a smaller tank why will a 3" fish not grow in a 2 foot by 1 foot tank? It is only 3" people keep 3" community fish in that size all the time...
Is there something i am missing?

Thanks and the guy had it for a over a yeah which normally a festae should be around the 6-8" mark by now or a little bigger

But why did it not grow at least an inch or 2... It should have still grown a LITTLE bit in that footprint.

The stunting is not likely an issue with the tank footprint, but rather a likely result of high stress, poor diet and/or poor water quality.
