Id like to take this oppourtunity to thank lisa (blondenblue) and partner and children for traveling and meeting me today to get me MOOB
shes settled in now , wouldnt take cockles but had a good munch on some stones until i fed her mussels which she obliterated . WOW
Heres a couple of pics of her- she made a 5-6 hour journey to get home to me.
(sorry if the pics are too big or dont fit on the forum)

Thank you so much for bringing her to meet me and letting me have her -
shes currently sitting down in one corner picking up gravel and chewing it then spitting it back out! lol i offered her another mussel and she didnt bother with it

I love hearing happy endings like this. Glad that blondenblue found a good home for her Moob and happy that autophotos was able to get Moob. Smiles all around.

Hey guys - do any of your mbus eat ramshorns? or any snails to that matter? reason im asking is that up until recently i had ramshorns in my smaller tank - but the dps are now in there - so was looking for extra growing/breeding areas! cheers

she will eat them i think, she used to get a treat of apple snail! and liked them as much as mussel! I stopped giving her them after a fellow tpf members mbu nearly died choking on one!
