Cute little fish. Are they uirihailine, like standard mollies and other livebearers?
 
This species does not come from rivers with an influx of salt. so no need for salt in aquarium they prefer hard water do well at a temperature of 76f. a good quality flake food some vegetable matter and some live food should be included in their diet.
 
I actually saw these little one when I was on google about mollies last night. They are such a super sweet little fish :wub:
 
I used to have those. With some luck, I´ll have them again in October this year. Depending on the whole covid-19 situation.
