          • very, very nice bro! are they about 4" long? They look very young. Hard to tell coloring-wise from a tank pic. I bet when you put them in your wet hand the colors pop out at you!!!

            They need some TLC....the fins look tattered some, but give it a few weeks and they will look A-1 !!!!!!!! What part of Lake T did they say they came out of?

            congrats on some great looking fish!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! they were worth the wait bro!!!!!!!!

            more pics pls.

              What are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

                    nice sand and rocks I would just move that big one on the right over to the center a little bit more
                    He basically called you the king of fronts in the first part....I cant make out the second part "mas chingon"....is that slang or something? not sure...anyways you were wondering last night sooooo.....

                      • So I've had these guys for a few weeks now and everyone is chowing down on NLS Thera A and Dianichi pellets. Their fins are starting to heal up real nice and some of them already have some sick trailers. I cant wait until they get bigger. It might be my imagination but these guys are very curious and they are constantly roaming around all over the tank as a colony. My Mpimbwe didnt do this. They usually grouped together in the middle of the tank towards the top and chilled there for 12 hours a day. The Burundi I had never formed a group, they just swam around independently. I'm not sure if this is a trait with each species of Frontosa but it'd be a cool experiment to find out. I'm very anxious to find out what my ratio is...just gotta wait another year and a half. LOL

                            nope, i'm not ballin THAT hard. LOL. I went with the smaller ones so I could afford more of them. They are all around the 3" mark right now but in just a few weeks they already look a little bigger...maybe its my imagination again.

                            • Completely under that!

                              At least you got a lot and can weed out some males a long the way.

                              I always love fronts since I was a kid.

                              Could my new tank be for fronts?

                              Post up some pictures again!
