Known for its large size and unique appearance, the Frontosa features a prominent hump on its head (called a nuchal hump) and a broad, powerful body. Their beautiful blue-gray or white coloration, coupled with their impressive size, makes them a standout in any aquarium. Frontosas are semi-aggressive and territorial, especially as they mature, so they are best kept in larger tanks with other robust, semi-aggressive fish. They are slow-moving and tend to be more peaceful with their own kind, but they should be kept with caution around smaller or more timid species.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-start=\"717\" data-end=\"734\" class=\"\"\u003eNeed to Know:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-start=\"736\" data-end=\"1075\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"736\" data-end=\"822\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"738\" data-end=\"822\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"738\" data-end=\"758\"\u003eRecommended For:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive community tanks with other large, robust fish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"823\" data-end=\"860\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"825\" data-end=\"860\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"825\" data-end=\"847\"\u003eMinimum Tank Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 200 litres\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"861\" data-end=\"895\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"863\" data-end=\"895\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"863\" data-end=\"885\"\u003eTemperature Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 24-28°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"896\" data-end=\"921\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"898\" data-end=\"921\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"898\" data-end=\"911\"\u003epH Range:\u003c\/strong\u003e 7.5-9.0\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"922\" data-end=\"964\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"924\" data-end=\"964\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"924\" data-end=\"952\"\u003eRecommended School Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 or more\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"965\" data-end=\"1051\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"967\" data-end=\"1051\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"967\" data-end=\"985\"\u003eCompatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Semi-aggressive; best with other large, semi-aggressive species\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-start=\"1052\" data-end=\"1075\" class=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1054\" data-end=\"1075\" class=\"\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"1054\" data-end=\"1067\"\u003eMax Size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30 cm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/a-ADh8U5W-s?si=GtxBkh2FCkPPhD1m\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping Disclaimer:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAll fish are usually shipped on Monday or Tuesday mornings via an overnight courier.
