Great looking fish! I recently acquired 9 Moba's myself. I have them in a bare-bottom 125g for growing right now, but I'll be getting a 180g for them soon.

What size tank do you have them in? Do you find that the loaches make them nervous, or does the constant loach activity help bring out the fronts more?

I got the moba in the 225g for two weeks before adding the loaches and gold head. I see no change in behavior. Fronts hang on the intake end of the tank with less current. Gold head are a little territorial during feeding. Cockloach are everywhere. More active during feeding and eats a lot. Great bottom cleaners.

Wow, this looks like a dream tank -

will a 225 be big enough for all these fish indefinitely? If so, I might have to have an argument to get myself another 225!
