I love the confidence the Frontosa's show. A beautiful fish with a ton of personality. They look so fantastic in the big tank.

[@KaveManAquatics]

I agree!! And they’re doing great with everyone else 😁💪

[@rosittacorason9147]

Just added a frontosa to my cichlid tank, will be buying a few more as I just learned they like to swim in a group of their species. Great video, set up looking lit.

[@KaveManAquatics]

Thank you! Yes more are better than fewer 😁

[@TEW-pp9vb]

I’m always amazed, Kev, every time I see this 210. The fish are amazing and you’ve got every color known to man in your tank. The colors are eye popping!!

I love your videos. :) Wanna share my experience, when I started I bought a used 75 gallon tank took me 2 months looking for what I can afford with only CA$300 of budget and found $250 which is everything is included like 2 wavemaker, Fluval 406, 2 heater, decor gravel worth $300, a tank with lid and 2 lights with stand on perfect condition and of course 24 cichlid 20 of it are peacock and hap cichlid unfortunate during transpo 2 of OB died. anyways 4 of the cichlids which is at first didnt know what is it and it turns out 4 frontosas and they are 9 inches and of course I did my research and turns out 1 of them can go with 75 gallon and decided to rehome them and posted it free the guy who picked it up gave me $140 for 4 which is made me happy but then when the guy was leaving I felt sad and cried I felt bad rehoming them and I got too attached on them for only a month with me.

Thats a great way to do it as well. Unfortunately I tend to keep the lights on only for the video. The Frontosa have done EXTREMELY well with the rest of the Malawis. Theyve grown and even mated a few times. I have 1 frontosa fry survivor in the tank right now. He has a great hiding spot lol

[@robmelo7028]

Hey Kev, great video as usual! Question do you pump straight tap water to your tank? Or do you get it to temp first the pump it to your tank?. I have been sending water to a separate container getting it to temp then add all of my chems and minerals let it mix and aerate with a pump then send it to my tank. When I upgrade to a 200+ tank I won't be able to do this as easily. Your thoughts and suggestions. Thanks man your a great addition to this space!

[@KaveManAquatics]

So I fill up a 55G tote in my tub and set the hot and cold to the temp I need, then my pump sends the warm water to the tank. Keep in mind that your temp doesnt have to be exact. 3-5 degrees off is ok but of course this depends on how hardy your fish are. Heres a video of how I refill my tank - kzbin.info/www/bejne/a4WXpZKGmb12h9k

Hey kav just wanna ask something is the benifical bacteria eat by the fish.if not then what is they eat from the sponge filter??they keep pooking in the sponge

Not really, especially when switching to Africans since they are brackish fish even if theres a little salt residue left in the tank they'll be fine with it.

Hey Kev, I've been following your channel for quite a bit now and I must say, you got this hobby down packed.. Love your tanks bro. Just a quick question though ? I have an adult size Insignus Hap about 6 to 7 inches. He is tank mates with a bunch of other peacocks and haps. So it's been around 2 months now and he does not want to eat anything. Besides him all my other fish eat perfectly fine. Is there anything that I can do to have him eat? I feed them Omega one pellets and bug bites from time to time. I've been testing my water and doing water changes at least once a week and everything seems to be good. I'd really appreciate any feedback you may have on this lil issue. Don't want my big boy to die sooner or later. Happy fish keeping to you and all my friends!!!!!!

Not eating is a sign of internal parasites. First I suggest you try feeding him this - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mITTc4iig5JroKs If he still doesn't eat it, and you notice his size begins to reduce then you may have to resort to this - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mJiQoICkeL6brdU

A few deaths here and there early on (I'm still a beginner) but for a while it was good now I'm getting the one of death here and there the past 3 months like some dying every 2 weeks) My water parameters are good, I have good filters (Fluval 407) and most of the recommendations form you (wave maker etc). I can't figure out why some would die. I have a 200 Litre tank (43 gallons) I noticed fish days before i know they will die is that they're often slow. hang back from the rest when they swim up to the tanks. it like they're very low on energy.
