Dwarf molly

[emeraldking]

The dwarf molly (Poecilia chica) is a short finned.wild molly species from Mexico...
The name "dwarf molly" is a bit confusing. The molly itself belongs to the mid sized wild molly species. But the name "dwarf molly" refers to the short dorsal.
I'm keeping them together with my kallmani swordtails (Xiphophorus kallmani) which is a great combination.
