I was wrong on the number my friend had, but here’s a video of 14 adult Mikula in a 6’ 220gal tank for reference. Some may consider it overstocked, but DANG, it looks bloody awesome if you ask me. He had this group for almost 10yrs with a handful of losses to float & some additions over that period.
For clarity, the ratio of the group is critical to harmony. There’s 2 x 12-14” adult males, a couple of betas and 10 females.
Enjoy!

Beautiful fish and overall the tank looks great.

With the 16 Moba coming that'll make 41 Moba total in my tank. The ratio for all is supposed to be 1M/3F and if that is even close to correct I could end up with some extra males which I would need to rehome. Might possibly have a hyper aggressive female along the way that will have to go. I'll give my tank some more thought but right now I think I might just put the 16 Moba in the tank and take it from there.

That is a beautiful tank and beautiful fish. I dabbled for a bit with Fronts being that they are a colony fish i believe its ok to overstock a little bit as long as you keep your male to female ratio good and stay on top of WC
