Frontosa Burundi tankmates?

[Karl K]

Calvus/Comps work real well, Cyprochromis are a bad idea as they could end up lunch depending on your group of Fronts.

Thanks, ill look into that. More looking for some either noone cichlid or a pair of big cichlids, like 20 - 35cm.

How about some Leporinus fasciatus

Definetly closer. But looking for something a little different tho.

Giant Danios , mixture of the smaller Gouramis, a shoal of exodons

No on the exodons, they'd end up taking chunks out of the fronts and everything else for that matter

Naw, exodons aren't that bad. They are scale biters, but I've kept a large group with large cichlids and IMO they are worth the trouble. They do like to go after shiny silver fish.

U can try with leleupi , they are really nice with frontosas in black sand tank

I actually picked up my first leleupi yesterday. Kinda looks like my bellycrawler pike, but burgundy with black around the mouth. It has four white visible fangs, pretty cool fish. If you can find them, they would look good contrasted with a darker fish.

Would Bichirs work?

 

[rmkblades]

Yes. They will grow a lot faster than your frontosas though
