      Damn!

      How many did you have, 100 million?

      They got a really nice blue to them.

      I also like how you kept the lighting a little subdued compared to tropheus/petro lighting.

        I think that fronts like the low light.

        they live in a deeper part of the lake.

        makes sense to me though i cant back that up with any proof other than all the fry I produced.

        at one point before i started selling the fry to make room/money for trophs i had over 200. The adult colony was 1M/4F

            same 125g i've got my trophs in now... I sold my colony before I moved this summer because I needed to cut down on the # of tanks i had and the fronts lost to the trophs and saltwater.

              no offense, but i like the look of those 100 fronts to 100 trophs anyday.

              that looked sweet!

              and that rock scape in pic 5 looks insane, make the tank they are in look like a 1000g tank.

              very cool.

                No proof needed. They are generally deeper water fish and hunt at night also, so surely they like the dimmer lighting set-up.

                      Never seen that many Frontosa in the same tank. They look awesome in large numbers. Very cool.

                            thanks guys. they bred like rabbits for me and didn't want the trouble of keeping up with it. I do miss them though maybe i'll get some more down the road.
