No, I'm not a cichlid guy. Duanes is and will give you good advice. I'm just getting his attention with a quote.

What's your tank size and how big are your fish? Feeding should change from Juvenile to adult age from multiple feedings a day with a fasting day every week to one meal a day once they become larger.

I would probably cut back to one meal a day for the frontosas. How old are your kkp?

There abt 5 to 6 inches

I would also check your water parameters with your tank being only a few weeks in to ensure your tank has fully cycled.
