Petrochromis Moshi "AKA" The Smasher!

[russ]

thats funny.my tropheus dont want no part of the petros.
i have 35 mpulungu in with my 9 wc petro kasumbe and they def. get out of the way.i also have some wc rr in with 15 adult trews and they run for their life in there to.these are not small tropheus either.
the green guy is the petros by the way.

MY situation is 1 -6+" Moshi that I'm trying to get extra food to, and the 40 Ikola pigs swarm him to get to it first.

[eklikewhoa]

See that's why I worried about this guy.
The last Moshi i got had his world rocked big time by the Ilangi's and it was boderline unreal how bad the Ilangi's ran his life.

This one Looks a bit more aggressive but I have been trying to aggravate it so that it gets crazy enough.... I think he might fall victim of gang brutality though.


Jesper, I'm feeding it an altered shrimp mix I have been toying with. Also gets like 1/4 tsp of NLS like every other hour I'm up and home.

When John kept that BLue Giant, he feed him the floating Jumbo.

[eklikewhoa]

Well, tried putting him in and saw the worse case of gang brutality....

I think I even saw the Longolas run and hide when the Moshi was gettin his beat down.

Are you power feeding your Moshi so he can fight.. you know fish dont forget as easily as you might think.. That is a lot of food..

[eklikewhoa]

Well it was on a bit of the thin side when I got... I like my fish to be a bit beefy, hate the sunken stomach look with the passion.

Well I guess the Ilangi's hate big lipped petros cause this is the third petro now with the short snout/ big lip that they have whooped up on.

[Delock]

I will take him

[Zulaab]

LOL

Well if you need to ever get rid of your Red Fin guys let me know.. I absolutely love them.. I need to find three of them myself .. they are frigging beautiful.. Dont get me wrong your Moshi is NICE !! I am just impressed how much you are feeding this guy.. hopefully he will be up to par soon :)

[eklikewhoa]

A friend has staked claim of the Moshi already... as for the red fin there are a few friends that keep hassling me over them.

Get more then 3 Jesper.

[Zulaab]

I need to know where to get them first :)

[eklikewhoa]

Damn man there was a whole box of them on the list.

You can wait for fry now

[geoff_tropheus]

here's another idea.

That's how I've been feeding mine!

I grab a big pinch and hold it in the corner till he gets there then I pretty much release it into his mouth, been giving him about 3-4 big pinches each time.

He's a big dumbass so once the pellets get to the floor he's lost and tires easily of picking up single pellets... then he has a problem getting sand stuck in his teeth too.
