I am planning on getting about 5-8 frontosa for my 180-gallon. I know absolutely NOTHING about frontosas.

What kind of frontosa should I get?
 
I went through this same thing and ended up getting all 3. My favorite though are Mpimbwe and they dont' cost near as much as my Moba.
 
I have 6 in my 240 at the moment. They are the only occupants. I will probably get 3 more females though.
 
you just ordered fronts and you have no idea how to care for them?

Dear Jebus, please help this guy as he has no clue what he's doing-amen lol..

joking.

but seriously, get busy reading all you can on them. lots of rocks and caves, ph level at 8-8.5. stay away from floating pellets or they may get float. they are carnivores..

please tell me you arent cycling a new tank with them..
 
You know whats pretty bad. I don't even worry about the PH in any of my Frontosa tanks. Mine are very active and breeding well, so not sure if PH is critical as some say. Still learning here, so not sure.
