Maybe I'll try it again. Just afraid she's gonna eat someone else lol. But if you got Nigel going, I believe you. Will keep trying!
What's in the box? It's polys!

Wow that's to bad. I was worried on the size difference. I'd say yes to the del from ws should be fine. Blackworms I get them from my lfs. Ropes eat the crap out of the blackworms. Won't eat pellets. I was busy doing stuff lastnight but fed some shrimp pellets. They were doing about the same thing with them but looks like the 6 or 7 pieces I put in are gone, but they tend to break up easily too.She'll have like one. Maybe. That's what I was doing. Fed NLS one day, then skipped a day then did Carnivore, then skipped a day, then when it was about to be tilapia day(del got eaten).
magpie Good point about the feeding live. Definitely don't want the moke to keep eating other fish or nipping. Good point about the pellets too. I want her to eat them and be satisfied. Will try the other options you listed like the krill. Maybe she just has a taste for her own kind. I do like the variety of polys option!
kno4te Do you think if I got one of the 6 inch WC dels from Wetspot, the moke would be okay. Would be devastated if anything would happen to her or if she got eaten. However I do want three polys in the tank.
Want to try earthworms, but will have to buy them from a special place to get ones without pesticides. In the meantime I'll do bloodworm soaked pellets again and try the krill and catfish. Like the idea of preventing bloat.
J jaws7777 I was doing NLS pellets, no feed the next day, carnivore pellets, no feed, then was going to do the tilapia, but then the del was gone. She seems to love tilapia, but the pellets not so much. Even with skipping days in between, she might eat like two small ones or none at all. Then eat like 10 pieces of tilapia 3 days later:
Probie it is unfortunate, but the del is defeinitely in the moke's stomach. At least she might get a growth spurt?
Moke is 8 inch. But I got her at 7 inches....said 5 lol. Del says 6" so does that mean I get 8"?
If she's 8", if you get a 6-8" Del she won't get eaten.
My Del slowed way down in growth when she hit 8". She's about 9 now and has been for a bit. She's wider than the Moke but still.
I know that the CB Dels can have cool patterns but I LOVE the WCs heads and non-tubby body shapes.
You could ask them to send you the Del with the best stripe pattern or the craziest pattern...

hehe at the nontubby. Udon and wild dels have always had a special place in my heart. Maybe this is a blessing in disguise. And it seems J jaws7777 is also on board with the del. Know he loved Spike. Jaws, did you decide to get Spike mounted?
you think WC Del too? If so, I think I'm gonna go for it. How is PLANTFACE?
I do think wc del! PLANTFACE is your moke so I don't know how is she?
Ahh man spiikke !!! Shes still in the freezer. I def want to mount her. Im with mags on this dels are just awesome i think a wc del would be the way to go
Update from the weekend:
Moke isn't moving around very much anymore. Being super lazy lately. Makes me sad cause I liked watching her swim.
The albino seen has been up at the top by the water lettuce 99% of the time.
Check out this lazy Sunday.
