Great looking fish, but I wouldn't breed them. They have mooning and blurring of the stripes. signs of bad gene's
Yeah, your male has mooning near the top and the female stripes bleed into each other. these are signs from inbreeding. It's good that you got them from different sources but both of those sources didn't.
Great looking fish though.
ps, I didn't know if it's a typo or what but it "Frontosa"

wouldnt worry about the mooning so much as it isnt severe
the other one has 7 stripes like a kigoma (a seven stripe variety)
I have seen Burundi on occasion with and extra stripe
as far as mooning goes I have seen my F1 aplha and F0 females throw an occasional fry with mooning, so Im not totally convinced about inbreeding etc
many times the stripes will darken as they age (not in very severe cases obviously)
either way
if they are male and female I wouldnt suggest breeding them
both nice looking fish by the way
