I'd suggest the 250.
Fronts are foot long fish that like buddies. With a 250, you can really go all out.

Not only would the 250 gallon be good, it would be FANTASTIC. Nothing is better than a large tank for them to thrive in. You'd keep able to keep a dozen or more. Usually a dozen is a good size, which would allow you to keep other fish in there too.

At their adult size 1 male, 2 female would be rather cramped in a 90g, but it can be done....

But your 250 is the tank you should really use.
Get a few for the 90g, and transfer them when you get the 250g fixed
