  • Double Trouble--Moba Wiggler Pics

    Wanted to share my moba double spawn pics.  One of my moba mommas had 14 wigglers--I broke 1 egg when stripping her and another failed to form and dissolved.  My black moba momma had 19 wigglers.  I have them in side-by-side tumblers with a stainless steel bolt and nut holding the tumblers together for added protection.

    Bring on the pics!!!!!!!!!!!!!


    the tumbler on the left has 19 wigglers and the one on the right has 12 wigglers


    12 F1 moba wigglers


    double trouble!!!!!

    anymore fry to a tumbler malfunction!!!


    another 12 wiggler shot--pass the cigars!!!!

    I don't know how you get anything done! I would be so tempted to just stare at those little guys all day. They're cute! Great pictures, thanks for sharing!

      So how many days are those little guys stuck with their luggage?

      Truth is the cement that holds the bricks and stones of a sane and civilized society together. Remove the former and the latter will crumble.

        CF -- I believe their baggage disappears after about 20 days from the day the eggs are laid....they have an ENORMOUS yolk sac.

            I strip my moba mommas at 10 days post-spawn and the little wigglers keep their egg sac for another 2 weeks or so.  Surprisingly, any small bits of uneaten food that get sucked into the bottom of the tumbler get attacked by these little pirahnas!!!!  LOL
