dude that totally sucks you are having such bad luck trying to find your festae 
hopefully your luck will turn around soon 
oh and the a*#hole who made snobby comment about how he shouldnt keep fish if he doesnt know how to tell them apart you need to keep your ridiculous comments to yourself, not everyone knows every single thing about every fish and especially when buying fry this small even the most knowledgeable of experts can have trouble identifying fry, the OP knows exactly what hes looking for and how to care for them its his ****ty lfs that keeps labeling fry wrong so you need to not comment unless you have something constructive to say

EDIT: i'd take them back say these are temporalis not festae and i don't want these. Some people shouldn't "sell" fish if they don't know the difference between them. Thats why i choose to educate myself so i avoid things like this.
Sorry that sounded very rude, i appoligize

That's actually how I read it the first time but very good of you to clarify nonetheless.
Also, I obviously have no idea what type of fish store you got those chocolates from but I have a few shops near me that often times forget to update the labels on the tanks when they get new stock. Doesn't mean they don't know what it is.
Now, if someone- when asked- told you that those chocolates were festae, I'd take everything that they say with a grain of salt from now on.
Don't stop going there though! IME, it's always in the shops that mislabel their stock where you find the greatest deals.

Sometimes stores get in new fish before they get around to erasing old names. Often times priority in the moment is to get the fish safely into the tank with the goal of changing names/prices soon after, but that does not always happen in a timely manner.
I am not saying the employee should not have pointed out that these are not festaes, but there does need to be some level of knowledge on the part of the customer too.
