Should be ok.. Just feed the male more and i guess should be the same size in no time.

Yeah, they can grow quite fast. I bought my first pair a month or so ago, feed them once a day with bloodworms and live brine shrimp. I recently bought another pair and thought they were huge. Brought them home and my first pair is not that much smaller than them cause they have seriously grown. Then got a stray male...and he was the bigger of the two in his tank, but when I brought him home, he was smaller than the female of the first pair. And he is actually the size of the male of the first pair when I first bought them about a month ago. Does that make sense? I do ramble.

But, the abridged version is, feed them well but be careful of waste as it fouls up the water.
