Mixing groups of Frontosa

[andy1985]

Can you have more then one species in a tank? for Example a group of Kigorma and group of Mpimbwe

I would advise against it, due to the fact that if they cross breed, andyou sell the fry as Kigorma/Mpimbwe to someone, who later on sells them as Mpimbwe; you end up losing your true bloodlines of that specific species of Frontosa...

Dont mix. No reason to cross breed those awesome fronts.

Which one out of 2 would u buy as a group?

 

[Kanta]

I have had both. I like mpimbwes more. But I would love a group of blue zaires.

Zaires will always be the king of frontosa, but mpimbwe never go out of style and are great looking fish. Kigs are pretty blah looking IMO.

might be getting 14 Kigorma for £150 they are about 5cm so works out at £10 each good deal ?

that sounds like a decent price to me. do you know the lineage are they F1 or no idea? good luck post pics when you get them
