Default Fedex's Zaire Moba + Pleasant Surprise

So excited to see someone selling F0 moba adults

Was prepared to buy a few pieces of moba from Fedex.

This female was spotted by "another bro" and it appeared to be holding something.

So we all speculated if it was eggs… bubble…. or sand?

Fedex was certain that it couldn't be eggs so we relinquished all hopes of it holding eggs

This female moba was eventually sold (to be continued)

(here comes the pleasant surprise...)

we all waited eagerly, as "another bro" proceeded to catch his fish

i suggested that he gave the holding female a good shake

"another bro" began to strip the female, and lo and behold!!!

7 fully formed fry came out

Fedex then went wild, calling his colleagues to come see this rare phenomenon, and 'high fiving' everyone in sight
(This is especially rare for Zaires to hold eggs to term in captivity - and Fedex has achieved it)

Fedex kept to his word, and gave "another bro" the female together with the fry

7 Zaire Moba Fries - 1 Partially Deformed eye (rear 3 with egg sac are not frontosa)


6 Perfect Zaire Moba Fries

Congratulations to Fedex for achieving this near impossible feat

Congratulations to “another Bro” who got there before I did

("another bro" wishes to remain anonymous for now)
