              If you havent done proper research on this fish, you are going to be very disappointed with your results. Frontosas are fairly easy to care for as long as you know whats going on. If you dont know what size breeding size is, you probably haven't done enough research. Wild caught fish also come with a whole new set of problems and needs. You're about to spend a LOT of money and it would suck to see them die or get sick. Good luck with your search and I hope everything works out for you because Fronts are REALLY cool fish to own....although I may be a little bias with that comment. LOL

              You ain't doing it right

                I would do two males (mayb a 3rd if it's small) and 6-8 females depending on size.

                Nice tank dimension and great pick on the fish Ram!

                        Keeping Trophs and keeping Fronts are two very different ballgames. I was being a jerk. I just dont want to see another group of Fronts get improper treatment and end up and "pass-around-fish". There is a member on this site that is considering selling his group of WC Mobas but i'll have to ask him if he's decided yet. I'll let you know as soon as I hear from him.

                            i meant to say I WASNT being a jerk. I'm not doubting anybody's skills. I guess i'm very bias about these fish because i love em so much and just want every one of them to be as well taken care of as possible. I really meant no disrespect.
