Frontosa Cichlid
The Frontosa Cichlid is a stunning and impressive freshwater fish native to Lake Tanganyika in Africa. Known for its large, rounded body and distinctive high forehead, or "hump," the Frontosa can grow up to 15 inches, making it a striking centerpiece in any aquarium. A moderately peaceful species, Frontosas thrive in spacious tanks of at least 70 gallons, ideally with rocky structures and caves to mimic their natural environment. While they are generally calm, they can become territorial during breeding, so it's important to select compatible tankmates. As carnivores, Frontosas require a diet of high-quality pellets, frozen foods like bloodworms and krill, and occasional live treats. Their captivating appearance and calm temperament make them a perfect choice for experienced aquarists looking to add a unique and dynamic presence to their setup. With their impressive beauty and gentle nature, the Frontosa Cichlid is an exceptional addition to any African cichlid community or large tank.
