Emergency, Fish Suddenly Gave Out babies

[Rollxr]

Hi, so one of my female mollies suddenly gave oht babies, i went to my tank and i notice fish fry. But the bad news is that I have no breeder box or any other separate tank, what can i do with the babies?! Will the babies get eaten, then will I get ammonia?!

I had this happen, they thrived, just monitor the food as they get bigger - you will however find that the water will become hard to control due to waste.

Talk to your LFS most will take they fry off your hands for free to save you space.

Local stores that take fry are taking feeders - they would go bankrupt if they used one of their tanks for the months needed to bring them up to sale size. I would do nothing. Some will survive - not many if it is a mixed species community.You can rehome extras as they get large enough.

Its not an emergency. Fish do this all the time in the wild without intervention. I agree with @GaryE just leave them to it and at some point you may have to re-home if you have too many.
