Front Q.

[BloodThirsty]

What is the min tank size for a single Front?

 

[mike dunagan]

I would say 75 min...

 

[BloodThirsty]

Would a single Front be happy in a 65G with these measurements?

36" wide x 18" deep x 24" tall

is this your office tank?
if you're going with africans, do tanginkans (spelling) they're really colorful and you can get more fish in there, which (in my opinion) should look alot better. plus the drama of all those fish going along with their lives and one another adds something to the tank.

but I think it would work

65 gallon tank would be fine for a front or 2 a 75 is 48x18x20 so you would be fine

At the mo i've got 4 fronts in a 4x2x2 and i'm growing a baby on, one is 10", one at 6" and two at 4" and there plenty of room left.

haha, yes but I'm leaning toward the discus.


Can't find anything on tanginkans. I know the spelling is off but you have any info on them? I have no clue about what they are.

Most tangs are not that colorful. If you want colors go with the Lake Malawi Peacocks. As for one Frontosa, A 55g is fine for him/her.

It's a 65. 36" wide x 18" deep x 24" tall. Could I do two fronts or one front and some other smaller africans or would I be pushing it with one front?

I think that a 65G would be fine for a pair of fronts and a few yellow labs. I currently have a 55G with a spawning pair of fronts and a pair of yellow labs. The only problem is, what to do with the fry? The tank has been running for 6 years.
