  • Do you want your frontosas to grow faster or for them to breed? Feeding them raw shrimp will help with both cases and can even help with your frontosas coloration!

    Great video mate thanks, my only feedback if that clown loach needs mates. I love the face that you keep clowns with your frontosa, same as me. Make my frontosa come out way more

    How often should I feed my Frontosa from fry, juvenile, adult stages throughout their lives? How many times per day/week? Variety of foods, etc?

    My Frontosa are 6 months old-2 yrs old and they only nimble at shrimp or artificial crabmeat, they don’t really eat it. What am I doing wrong? Thank you.

    Hey great video keep it going. I have frontosa little bigger than 2inches and I have a less than a inch baby baby frontosa in a breeder net inside the tank, and I let them swim together and big frontosa layed on its side when they met I was scared as SHIT thinking it would end bad but he kept nipping and chasing the little guy around I don’t know what to do. Do you have any advice?

    Great video, Ricky! Need a suggestion : Is it ok to have Burundi and Moba combined in a tank? I don't have any plans to breed or sell the fry. I've been contemplating raising fronts soon and want to start with 3 Burundi and 3 Moba's to start of with. What's your thoughts?

    Hi Ricky can i feed prawns instead of shrimp, as in UK prawns are easier to find in any supermarket. Thanks. Ben.

    Great Video. Do your Syn cats mess with the frontosa breeding? Was wanting to put 1 or 2 in my 135g frontosa colony

      Not so far! I was actually hoping for more cats but that has not happened!

    I have been feeding cooked shrimp to mine because I could not find large pellets. I will be switching to raw now, thanks.

      I’m having the same question I’m scared to put them in together and actually I just did it yesterday and the first thing the 2 1/2 inch frontosa layed on it’s side as soon as they met it was amazing to see but then he chased and nipped at the baby idk what to do

    • @RickyKenerlyCichlids
      @RickyKenerlyCichlids  3 роки тому +1

      Two to three times a week if you can afford it. I have just been feeding them food sticks recently because of the cost!
