Hey congrats on all of the babies hope you have fun, im having a bit of trouble no pet stores around me have silver mollies anymore so i was wondering if a differant kind of molley would breeed with it? if so what kind?

 

[PJGuppies]

i am thinking about get 2 mollies of each sex and hope to breed them any tips?

If you want to breed them it works out better if you have a 2 female : 1 male ratio.

 

[kevy]

A ratio of 2 females : 1 male would probably be better then 2:2. That is, if you plan to breed them.

Actually, what would be even better is 3 females to 1 male. The males tend to annoy the females VERY quickly, so if there is 2 or more females, they don't bug just one of the females ALL the time.

UPDATE::: Well I dont have 30 babies I have 34!!! I found 3 more the next day and I found 1 yesterday They are very good hiders lol

All of them are doing very well eating like little pigs

 

[MountGuppy]

wow your so lucky have fun with all those babies

 

[Boggnials]

are the mollies schooling fish? if so are anyof you looking to get rid of 2 males and 4 females? i would really hope if any of you would give me some of sell them. but i dont know how to do the whole money thing over the internet, so i was hoping someone was just overrun with babies and wanted to get rid of some of them.

I wouldnt know how to ship them Where do you live? My babies arent old enough to go to their new homes yet, 1 batch is 5 1/2 weeks and the other batch are 1 1/2 weeks...I wont sell them until they are least 1 inch long if not longer..

But if I knew how to ship them I would send you some if you are in the States

PJGuppies,
Congrats on your new babies. Sadly, I just experienced an entire wipeout of my babies. 34 total and 3 are barely hanging on. Don't know what I did wrong. I placed a post just a few minutes ago about it.
