Frontosas... which one?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
the 7 bar frontosa (Kigoma) are awesome

of the 6 bars, i prefer Kapampa, bulu point, burundi and mpimbwe.


its really up to personal taste.
 
I agree. It's generally personal opinion depending on the color you like best. Zaires tend to be most expensive, and you'd likely need to specifically order them from a reputable breeder or importer. Burundi tend to be most common, and generally the only varient you'll find in a pet store.

http://www.cyphos.com is a good link for tons of front information.
 
i would like to have the nicest possible frontosa's and the more exotic ones but not too hard to keep. what i mean too hard to keep are like discus where in the breeders would always tell me to change 50% of the water everyday which is totally not for me. ;)

would the 7 stripe be nice when they grow up and would their colors be very bright? and is their only one type of frontosa on the 7 stripe ones? thanks! :)
 
Check out the website listed above. They really have a lot of great info and a lot of the members are from California. Great pics also.
Mpimbwes, kitumbas, and mobas are all great looking fish but mobas are more expensive.

Why aren't you showing a nice looking Moba avatar ??


I once almost bought a "BLUE BLUE" Zaire, well from what they breeder said anyways. Drove almost an hour to find out they were Burundi's. :cry: Your comment just reminded me of the incident. :D
 
i been doing alot research on fronts since i am interested in setting up a colony. i like moba the best but have also though of mpimbwe since their personality is better (not as skittish compare to the zaire).

anyone recommend a good importer to contact in so cal for some smaller moba? i looking for wild ones. Thanks.
