I'm looking to get into Frontosas and I have a question...First off, I prefer the ones with the smallest humps on their heads so which sub-species will that be? I'm getting about 8 and they will be housed in a 125 gallon tank :) Thanks !

Cyphotilapia Gibberosa or any species from Tanzania, zambia and the Congo aka Zaire will not grow big humps. Cyphotilapia Frontosa or any species from Kigoma, burundi ans Sp. North tend to grow big humps. HTH ;-)
