        haha...thanks...guess it wont be a good idea to get one to put with your fronts...doesnt mean the mbu will hurt them...but as i know that fronts are really sensitive right? they do get crazy when they got shocked right?

          he was really really fragile when i got him...just laying on the bottom everyday...
          i was so scared that one day when i wake up and found him dead or something....
          and i was really more scared when i hit those metros to deworm him lol...
          took me weeks of feeding to just put on a little weight to deworm him..

                imo not really...at least mine...
                he would eat to his limit and just stop eating...then when i put more food in there...he aint even look at it...
                as they grow bigger...they would need more food...before i buy small shrimps..he would eat one and laying there for 2 days or so....
                if he is full or trying to poop...he would most likely laying on the bottom of the tank, like he is sick or dying...at first it was scary...then i get use to it...and when he is hungry again...he would just swimming left to right in the top half of the tank...then when i walk up to him..he would be like all exciting and splashing the water with his tail...so that's when i know i need to feed him again...sometimes if you feed a lot at once...he would lay on the bottom a little longer...and back up swimming again later...so it is really simple...when he swimming like crazy when u get near the tank...feed him..when he not moving much...dont feed...
                but recently he is eating a lot more...
                like when he ate 4 crawfish today...he was only laying on the sand bed for maybe like 15 mins...and then he was backed up and swimming all around again...now i am all buying jumbo shrimps...the biggest one i could find on the market, which is like equal 3 of the small ones i use to feed...now he could eat one jumbo shrimp each day...and the next morning like nothing happened...swimming all around again...

                                Fahaka is already very rare here, but I can still find a few.
                                Mbus, I never find, see, or even hear anyone talk about it.
