my male fh has taken a likeing to my i guess female texas? he is 3.5 inch and she is about 3 inch is this possible, they killed my oscar and are protecting a flower pot and chasing the sd's can they breed or am i just tripin
 
It is possible they can breed at that size. I have seen fish do it before, but it is unlikely they will be successful at that size.
The eggs probably won't get fertilized or they will eat the eggs, b/c they don't know exactly what to do just yet.
If they are paired off all ready, you should move them to a breeding tank and see what ensues.
 
Good possibility,they can.I've had a few fish breed at that size or slightly smaller
 
Females FH can lay eggs at 4-5 months olds, about 2.5-5 inches(excluding tail).

as i read your signature your FH is only 2" so she still cant

thats a good female. almost straight plums, ok pearls and good redness why cross it with a texas instead mate it with an water kok FH and sell the unwanted fry to LFS it will be better that way.
 
the fh is 3.5 in it has grown fast r u sure its female, and is there anywhere i can get a male fh without spending a fortune?
