Probably burundi and fronts are lake tanganykan fish how much are they asking because burundis are a lower price front also how big are they some them in your photo have some nice blue on them.

What he wants info on


When i researched i found this picture and it looks the same.

Therefore i believe that it is a F1 Frontosa Cyphotilapia frontosa or "Zaire Blue" .

The frontosa's in the photo seem to generally have the Gibberosa-type mask (which runs across the face) rather than the near-vertical defined eye stripes that juvenile burundi's have.

Not sure what type of Gibberosa variant, though.

For a side by side comparison of a gibberosa variant and burundi variant:
