I'm most attracted to that particular AC. To me, they're the "Discus" of the AC family...MAJESTIC & REGAL. That Frontosa HABITAT is mind blowing! God love you, Corey, you sure know a lot of fascinating hobbyists.

I remember the first video. Nice looking Frontosa's - they look small because the tank is so big. I am really thinking about doing a large plywood tank. Very cool !

Prime Time Aquatics plywood tanks are well worth the effort since you can customize to exactly what you want without the astronomical price of a customized commercial aquarium.

Fantastic looking Frontosa Cichlids you have. We remember seeing your previous video when you had the Haps n' Mbuna in that aquarium and we really agree that your aquarium looked great then and, it looks great today. Well done Scott and all the best. Thankyou for sharing this inspiring video with us.

They almost make that 500 look small! Absolute beasts! So cool

on of my favorite tanks on the net. love the depth from front to back

I'm jealous of these large tanks. thanks for sharing Steve

This is the dream tank! Beautiful

They look beautiful and they can live for 20 years that's awesome

I wish I had the room for that kind of set up, those big Fronts are stunning!

Great tank! Congratulations!

Really Nice, imagine when they are all full grown

wow so beautiful and peaceful to watch them!!

Great looking tank!

Great video, thanks Steve!!

Thanks for the video Steve, glad everyone enjoys the tank as much as I do!

May I ask what kind of rocks those are. Absolutely beautiful tank.

Wow, amazing tank and fish.

Wow! Awesome man.

When I had challenges breeding established fish groups, what worked for me, was increasing or decreasing tank temperature. Anywhere from 3 to 4 degrees all at once. Great tank and good with the foai.

Thats so amazing great job👍

Always enjoy your vids thanks!

I enjoy the slow pace of Frontosas. I wish I could keep them.

Those are sweet! It took my Burundi Frontosa I raised up from fry almost 5 years to start breeding. Once they started though they began to breed routinely. I've been told that lots of live food can trigger them to begin spawning? They are mysterious fish in many regards.

some fish are just really slow breeders that's why conservation is so imprortant u know Arowanas are a really slow breeder as well, tons of different fish are, but not many ppl realize that and think there is just endless supply that's why so many natural fish popualtions are decimated and are having to have ristrictions put on it, if ppl would follow the rules more rules wouldn't need to be set in place

Awesome.

Nice tank

Thats setup in sick😁👍👍. New sub here😁

Nice bottom-of-a-lake scape.

Beautifull fish. my favorite african cichlid for sure. did i understand correctly, were these wild caught or captive bred?

gerghash they are F1's

i have a single rescue frontosa that i have had 20 years. i have no idea how much older he is.

Scott may i know how much cost all materials ? Dont include sumps and other mechanical ..just the tank?

How is the acrylic sealed to the wood?

nice. Zaires do not breed normal. may spawn a couple times then not breed for a couple years.

Mine bred three times in the first 6 months, they haven't spawned in over a year now!

I have Zaire Moba, Kitumba, Kapampa, Mikula (new ones) and some in Multi groups and they go through some crazy dry spells for long periods and sometimes I do not even know they bred until I see a couple babies show up! Right now my Blue Nangu, Kigoma are breeding really good. My Burundi actually have stopped and not sure why but maybe need a new young male to take over the group? My Samazi bred again and my Maswa have a couple fry in their tank. My Ikolas are on a dry spell also but a bit aged. Altogether I have upwards of a thousands Frontosa. May favorite. Planning on Diving with them next year in Africa.

The alpha male may be genetically programmed to regulate breeding according to his perception of food, space or other resource scarcity. Since the group has been recently re-housed to this tank, maybe the programming is to wait out a certain amount of time to see how conditions stay before allowing a population increase. I know next to nothing about fish keeping but that sort of thing can be seen in the animal world generally.

We have liked your Video.

Can any one tell me what kinda rocks are in there?

How did the spawning go since 2017?

crazy to think this tank is the size of a fire engine tank

Isn't this the guy with the Monster aquarium in his garage??? Updates....?

Love your fish. And your tank . Do you have your own channel? I think your problem is the ratio i think you should have 2 males rest females but that's my opinion it worked for me. And artificial crab meat and no lights. Would love to see updated

Ps. your set up is insane.... I want....

Now I want to sell my Red and Flower H

I don't know if this is the camera but why so much blue? does not give credit to the fish at all and its colors.... got to have some contrast. Blue on blue looks bad.

it looked better the other way.

You could put the alpha male in a 90 gallon tank for a couple of months and see when you put him back he will breed or leave them alone maybe is the new tank

They all look to be males only two females
