  • Moba Spawning Video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    This is the first time I've actually seen my mobas spawn.  I captured it on video tonite.

    I have 1 moba momma that has a mouthful of eggs..........she's on day 7.

    The moba momma in the video was showing a fully extended tube tonite and after feeding frozen mysis...........BAM.....within 2 hours she was spawning.

    I have a jet black moba momma that's my largest female.  She's showing the tiniest bit of tube tonite so before the end of the week, she'll be holding a mouthful of eggs hopefully.

    I've had double spawns before, but this would be my first Triple Spawn--3 moba mommas holding eggs at the same time.....WOO-HOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    To open the video, right-click on the pic and click on "open link".  I hope it opens for you.

              ek, she already had a mouthful and was toward the end of spawning.

              Yes, the black moba momma is a beaut.
