Very nice looking fish you have.

That's a frontosa you have in there with the malawis - that mix is likely to get problematic as time goes on. They are big gentle fish not suited for company with malawis in general, and they like to be in colony of their own kind, ideally.

Very nice fish! Would love to see the pics a little larger (say, at least... 600 pixels).

Also, I agree, that is not the best home for that frontosa, I can see that its fins (its trailers) have been nipped down - which is typical when a front is with Malawi fish (exp. yellow labs).

Fronts are a colony/harem fish. I hate to say this; however, here it goes: for the well being of the fish, you should rehome that frontosa OR better yet, buy a 125 gallon tank and get 7 more burundi frontosa to go with that one (and you can throw in a few altolamps too).

IMHO,
Russ

I agree with Razzo and Coler. That front is most likely not a happy fish right now.
