ken31cay ken31cay have your moba & sapphires arrived yet?
I have 19 Moba now with 15 more coming in around 5-6 weeks, and I have 12 sapphires which I'm growing out in my 180gal. The sapphires are about 3 inches but still not big enough to put in with the Moba which are 4"-4.5".

When the Moba first went in to my 750gal I also put in eight 3" Tinfoil Barbs to see if they could act as dithers. Within 3-4 days all that was left of them was about 2/3 of their front sections - the tails and rear third of bodies were bitten off by the Moba. Never saw that before with Moba that small so wasn't expecting it. Hence the reason I'm growing the sapphires bigger before putting them in the tank.

A pack of mobas stealth hunting at night no doubt! You prob know this, but they come out of the depths & feed on cyprichromis in the free water column at night.

Love to see some pics & a vid of them in the 750 when you get a chance!
