Im curious, why do so many people keep Fronts?

And how do they keep soo many? I see 55g with 20 4'' Fronts, and I wonder "Aren't they crowded? Wont they all get to be a foot long?"

Good question Danny...it's kinda similiar to "why do people keep oscars in 10 gallons?"

Cyphotilapia frontosa really do need large tanks and large groups of their own to really do best...I'd wouldn't even considrer keeping them in anything less than a 6 foot tank...I don't see that 55gallon working out in the long run...If the fish are allready 4inches, then that tank is allready a bit too crowded...and yes, fronts can get to be more than a foot long...


Some people will still try and fail with non-recomended species in tanks that are just to small...Not much you can do about it...
