Try to keep it on topic everyone. *Wonders how long before she'll become the hated moderator...*

I wouldn't have such a problem with them if they were more natural, not inbred to get there. It's the inbreeding and the fact that you basically bred a deformity to make it a type of fish. The swimming and balancing issues also put me off. There can be some pretty ones, don't get me wrong. I'd just never buy them.

Exactly! That's what I like to think.

It's nobody's fault, don't worry about. I'm just sticking my little note in.

Out of curiousity, why did you go off Black Mollies too Kaziebabes? Difficulty keeping them alive, boredom...?

 

[blitztidus]

What are kazibabes?, now this is off topic lol

 

[Themuleous]

I think she means the person! not a fish!

 

[blitztidus]

Never heard of the person, either way, BACK ON TOPIC NOW lol

 

[Themuleous]

see post 18, but yeh back to the topic!

 

[blitztidus]

OOOOOHH. NOW I SEE. Sorry, off topic again, back to the pooping ballon mollie

 

[Morquinn]

If I had to pick between a balloon molly and regular, I would chose regular, the big belly doesnt do it for me, just like the bubble eyes, cottage cheesy heads, and big bellies of some of those goldfish looking things. Although I did have a head and taillite tetra with one eyes once. And I do have blind cave fish (UGLY) so I dont know.... dislike the balloons.

 

[Kairi]

they have quite the personality- i like them, but wouldn't buy them for my tank

 

[carrera]

[Annastasia]
