Are these two female festae

i'll try to take some pics. They are wild caught and been in my tanks for 3 weeks. Been in the country for almost a month. Some fins are still growing back. I'll see what I can gather for pics.

Now that i think about it. that one doesn't eat much and it grew much shorter than the other one. i guess that is a result of her not eating as much. is there any way i can get her to eat more? different food? put i her in a tank alone? i have the water at about 88 degrees i do a 40% water change weekly in the tank she is in..

No amount of feeding will fix it if it is a physical deformity. Could try separate it and feed it up, but I'd still recommend breeding from the other one instead.

If you wanna try beefing her up then place both females in same tank with a divider, it will keep the dominant female dominant and allow the sub Dom female to feel safe and think she's Dom as well which should result in both females eating more to compete with each other. If that doesn't work then try selling off smaller female
