I would say that a lot of them do... tbh most people dont keep their pets alive long enough to even know for certain... a lot of them die from being kept in small enclosures or other reasons... so it is impossible to tell.... but if u dont wana take the risk... or if u dont wana support human genetic breeding then maybe stick to the pure breeds... it may be safer!

Its difficult to say that hybridization causes issues. I know with cattle and a lot of other animals, hybridization of a lot of pure but inbred species leads to a phenomenon named "hybrid vigor". They just get tougher and less prone to disease. Not sure about hybrid fish though, and you're right, until we keep them to full potential we'll never know their true lifespan. It definitely looks like you keep all your fish in the best conditions. Sorry for your loss.
