Hi, the main issue with Frontosa is obviously their adult size, with a Male reaching sizes of upto 16 inches,
for this reason you need to be looking at a tank size of 100G + for a pair,

IMO you would just about be able to keep 1 Frontosa in your current tank, provided that it is a 57long and has a decent width
along with something like a plec or synodontis catfish for example.
