Here's the front tank. Sorry about the dirty glass: 125G, 7 Mpimbwe adults (2M, 5F) and a few assorted large africans.

Very nice gregga. I am debating whether to set up a Frontosa colony or get a few large SA cichlids for my new 120 gal tank. Do your fronts have alot of personality. Have you had success breeding them? Such a hard decision to make. The PH of my tap water is in the range of 8-9. Your pics may sway my decision.

Quantimo...There are currently 7 adult Mpimbwe - 2 male, 5 female. Three of the females are wild caught. Any yes, there are two adult Cytocar Moorii in that tank as well.

NYQY....Cant go wrong with fronts..Is your 120G tank 4 or 6 foot long?..Longer is better for fronts....No breeding here yet, but I just added the three wild caught females in the last few weeks... fingers crossed
