I recently set up my tank and cycled it through with a couple fish and then went to by more. In my 20 gallon tank I have 2 neon tetras, 2 mickey mouse platys, 2 dalmation mollies, and one bottom feeder (I cant remember what type it is though). The day after I added the two mollies, one of them had babies. I saved 5 of them and gave the rest to a friend (but a couple managed to hide well enough and they're still inside my tank. Last night however, the other molly gave birth to more babies than I can count! I dont have a problem with leaving them in my tank until they're big enough to bring over to PetCo or something, but will the water levels in my tank go off the charts if I leave them in there?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! THANKS!!!
 
If you tank is cycled then the addition of new fry will not result in the ammonia nitrItes etc.. going off the scale. Keep doing your water changes (20% a week as per usual) and don't feed to heavily, remember how little each fry actually eats.

Good luck,
