Frontosa in a 90?

[jakezori]

Upon further consideration on using my 90 to house some green terrors, I was thinking I could use it as a frontosaville. Although I know 10 or so frontosa could not be housed in it well, would 1 male and 3-4 females be ok? Would they mate?

The water in my town is practically perfect for frontosa, so thats not an issue.

I would not recommend a 4ft tank for any fronts. I would give them at least 6 feet of room.

I'm going to get yelled at, but this is my perception on Fronts. I had 6 in an 8' 240 gallon tank, but they all seemed to hudle in one corner. I decided to add another 5 fronts. Now all the fronts still hang in the same area, but they do use much more of the space. I would bump the tank size up to a 120 and get a trio of Fronts. Make sure that you have a few places for hiding. I would only house fronts in a 90 if they are small. You can keep a couple of young fronts in a 90 for 1 to 2 years. They grow very slow. I know quite a few breeders that have trios/quads in a 75 gallon, but this is a little to small imo. GL
