  • Frontosa with Petros?

    Is it a good to keep petrochromis and moba in the same tank?

    I tried it one time for about a week . I had one 7" Moshi that i added to a tank of 6" to 10" Mpimbwe fronts . I didn't think the Moshi would bother a 10" Front . In less than two days the Moshi had taken over the tank and had all the Fronts in the corners . He didn't attack them...he just didn't want them around . So he would always charge towards them but not actually attack . I decided to go ahead and separate the Moshi from the Fronts .

      I never tried this but did read about it on other forums.

      For some reason petros can be aggressive towards fronts.
      I ate my fish that died.

          This is exactly why i told you (respectfully) to do your research before you bought Frontosas.. I haven't found too many fish that are compatible with fronts.
          If it ain't wild caught
          You ain't doing it right

                      Frontosa can be housed with little fish. I've never seen a happy Frontosa in a tank with large fish.

                        dude, dont go buy F1 Bulu's...just hold out and WC will show up more often. That and the price of F1's are steadily dropping....no since in paying more than you have to.

                          You can! Several factors will need to take place.

                          If the fronts and petros are juvi's! Your tank size. You will need length and width with alot of rock work
