molly fry

Hey guys! So I’m a bit concerned/confused about my gold nugget molly named July. I got her about 6 weeks ago, and then about a week later I got a male Lyretail molly (named Ember). July was most definitely a female up until today, as you can see from the first picture of her. Ember definitely...

Hello, I have a few questions about pregnant molly dalmatian since this is my first time handling one. -Is it okay for her to be in a five-gallon tank by herself? -Does she need a heater for the tank? if so what temperature? -Do I need to purchase a sponge filter? -Thank you

Hi there! I am only two months into my own endeavour to keep a fish tank (but I grew up with them) and after buying four balloon mollies from my local pet store chain on Friday last week (23rd), I noticed a single fry on Sunday that multiplied to 10 by that evening, maybe 18 on Tuesday and...

I recently purchased a ballon molly “first time owning one” and I know their naturally big but is it possible she’s pregnant ? She seemed distant from my other fish and eats a lot I just want to make sure I’m prepared if so

Hello!Earlier on around 3pm we found 2 fry in the tank. We aren’t sure which fish they belong to as there’s 2 which are pregnant. Looks like they’re both still pregnant but there’s been nothing else yet? Is this normal do they normally wait a while and then have more? X

Hi, yesterday I discovered my Molly gave birth, I found 4 teeny tiny little fry all hiding together so I scooped them up and put them in their own little hatchery. However, one of them I’ve noticed is struggling to keep afloat. It can swim, but it spends most of the time on the bottom. It’s...

Hello! I currently have fry babies (one is for sure a molly but the other two might be platys). I was wondering when would be a good time to put them in with the adults. As of now- they are close to half an inch (I would guess a bit larger than a fourth of an inch).

My sisters came into town for a week and a half recently and I asked them to pick out some fish to add to my 55 gallon tropical tank! One of them picked out an African dwarf frog and the other picked out three lyretail mollies. I quarantined them for a week and a half and released them in my...

Hi one of my fish in my community tank recently gave birth to some fry. But currently I have two types of livebearers in the tank and I wasnt awake when the fish gave birth. Down below are the pictures. I have a few guppies and three Dalmatian Mollys and currently the fry are in a breeder box...

Hi all, I woke up this morning and my molly had given birth to a fry which is surprising as I know my guppy is due to give birth but had no idea about my molly anyway she had the one then about an hour later I saw another one however I don't know if she's had anymore before after or inbetween...

Hi So I have a 105 litre tank, in it is the following 3 neons (less than there should be but I currently can't change that given lockdown) 1 adult female molly 6 molly fry (around 3 months old) 1 guppy My issue is the guppy has come oddly docile, barely moving and barely swimming. I found...

i was watching my fish earlier and saw a little thing darting around inside the barrels in my tank. I realized it was a Molly fry after I saw it again. There seems to just be one. Is it possible that my Molly hasn't had all of her babies yet or is it more likely that she ate the rest of them...

Hello all!   I am slowly but surely gaining some experience as a fish enthusiast. Is that what you'd call it? Hahaha!   Anyways, a month ago, my beautiful Gold Dust Molly gave birth to 14 lil fries. This is what momma Buzz looks like:   [sharedmedia=core:attachments:71012]   As the fry have...

So I have my first batch of molly fry,   they were born while I was away, most probably on sunday (2 days ago) and I came back to find them.   Managed to find 5  and transferred into a floating fry trap. No idea how many were born, although the molly mummy I suspect is quite a young one who's...
