..in an octopus' garden in the shade:)
I have a little 'tosa, and I want him to become a big ass 'tosa. He doesn't seem to eat that much of anything. I feed pellets, frozen brine and beefhart. He eats, but doesn't chow down like my devil did when he was just a little guy. What do you all feed your Frontosas?
STNDFSH :naughty:
 
I've probably had him for about a month or so........He was just a baby when I got 'em......he's gotten a little bigger and his fins are starting to get nice and long. He was really dark at first.....now he's a nice bright blue. He lives in a little 10 gallon tank with a peacock eel untill he gets big enough to play in the bigger tanks. :thumbsup:
 
What ever you are doing is working. They are slow slow growers. A 10 gal is to small for any size front IMO. If you have a 30 put it in there by it's self, without the eel. You will need a 75 gal later on for it, by it's self. Most people say that they are better in groups of 4 or more. In which you will need a 125 gal tank. Good luck with your fish and try to learn as much about them as possible at frontosa link .
 
Give him to me I have room for him.
 
I could move him to a bigger tank, but he would get chewed. I may just fork out for a bigger "grow out" tank.
Right now I just usually keep the guys alone in a ten gallon untill they can hang w/ the bigger fish.
I'm just gonna get myself a 180 gallon as a present for Christmas. No one else will get it for me! HAHAHAHAHA! :grinno:
 
I know how you feel.
 
I feed my frontosa fry flake and small pellets they like when you soak the food so it goes to the bottom. stay away from floating pellets they may cause float and kill your fonts!! How many frontosa and what Variant do you have? I have 11 Kipilli's and Burundi's they are 2 inches.
 
hi there i work at aquatics store and i found the best way to feed frontosa is by dangling the food infront of the class so you get their attention and then just throw it in, try freeze dried krill the best result
