Do know of any other fish that would make a good tank mate for Fronts?
1 Yellow Lab would be peaceful even though not a tang, right?
Also, How many fronts do you consider a colony? 5 - 10 - 20?
 
ok I really love these fish but I dont know if they will mix in my tank I have a arow,p-bass,dat,african pike,brycon I think thats it there all under a ft in a 150 gal will be moved into 300 when ready

yellow labs are fine with fronts, at least most of them are peaceful enough..once in awhile you do get one that will nip at the fronts.. but unlikely ... keep in mind that in the future you will want to have only the fronts once they are mature... they need all the room since they will be very big and the yellow labs would be a meal.. but thats not something to worry about for years.fronts grow very slow..
 
a colony is usually a number that is average amount... 6- 10 fronts are an average colony..but you can have any number you want 5 or more makes a colony... it just depends on your limitations or expectations for the future ...

alright heres my question..what makes zaire fronts so special?why are they so expensive?
there may be more reasons then this ..but a few reasons that come to my mind...are availability... they grow somewhat slower then other fronts... and they are harder to breed... and they themselves are a bit more fragile...and also i think it has to do with that they are dark blue blue... so beautiful .. i think they are the bluest of all the fronts.
