I would keep it with just the fronts personally...I wouldn't be surprised if at night a few labs went missing once those fronts reach adult size.

^I agree. But also, the yellow labs are mbunas that can be too boisterous for the fronts; IMHO.

The labs will get along fine with the frontosas. Although, I had more frontosa fry after the labs were removed.
