Ok, so keep them in that tank by themselves. not even the parents. I advise to use a weak filter or a sponge filter so they do not get sucked up, it may not seem like it but they can get messy. After about 4-8 weeks depending on how fast they grow and how big the parents are you can release them into the main tank. But make sure that they are not small enough to get eaten, and if they are big but small enough to get picked on put some plants into the tank but they should be fine. Ohh and one more thing put adult flake food into a sandwich bag, crush it up with you fingers threw the bag. then you should have very tiny-powdery like fish food. twice a day dip a looth pick or a q-tip withouth the fuzzy stuff on it, in water, then while it is wet put the tip in the crushed food so it get stuck to the tip lastly put the tip with the powder into the water again so the food comes off and the baby fish will eat that, wait about 2-3 after birth to start feeding and do NOT over feed because tankf will be hard to clean without a filter. and if you see and stray babaies in the main tank squeeze the top of a turkey bast and hold it down then put it in the water aiming at the baby and suck it up, the squirt it in to the baby tank (make sure after you suck it up you keep a finger on the nozzle so the baby doesnt fall out!) good luck!

I don’t think fish care about companions that much. I’d be more worried about the one you have in a breeding tank. It can be very stressful for them to be stuck in one of those small spaces alone.

I’m new at this and not quite sure exactly what type of Molly it is! But her belly has grown over the past few days and she is orange but her belly is white. Is she pregnant?
Yes it is a fish and I believe I have two females and one male!

Goodness. You take her to the veterinarian. Coloration has noting to do with pregnancy. Let her have the puppies or kittens, then get her spayed that way you won’t have this problem anymore. Good luck and remember to spay her!

When she looks like shes about to explode. She will remove herself from the group and sit by herself. She will occasionally shake (contractions). She will also eat a ton or not at all. Congrats!

I just want to keep the baby in their until grows big enough so the parents can’t eat it. Would it be OK? I have a 1 gallon tank with a betta in it, and a 1 gallon empty bowl. I was going to move the betta to the bowl and put the baby molly in the tank. Is this ok?

Beste Antwort:

Answer by Matt C
The molly will live but make sure you put a sponge over the filter. The betta will not like the new bowl as much so that mght cause issues. Personally i’d put the baby molly in the 1 gal bowl. This way you don’t need to worry about the filter sucking it up and the betta won’t be stressed from the move. Just make sure to clean the bowl often and it should be fine.

which is stronger, lasts longer, makes things feel better, and is just better in general? ive already done e several times but nvr molly. and i have a legit hookup on it. plz dont waste your time telling me not to do it….thanks

Beste Antwort:

Answer by Bryan
I’ve heard ‘from friends’ that the best thing is MDMA pure, my friend. The other stuff, no matter how legit the hookup is, tends to be cut with some awful chemicals. And I mean stuff you find in your bathroom/kitchen cupboards.

I know, because I have a ‘friend’ who knows people who know people who have been involved in the selling of some products.

I recently bought two Dalmatian Molly fish from a local pet store to be my dorm room pets. One is male the other is female. Now I know that Molly fish are prolific breeders and that keeping the two sexes in the same tank isn’t really a great idea, my huge mistake. What I want to know is what natural conditions, besides separating them, will prevent or at least put a damper on their breeding?

Note: They do not have a heater and are only in a 1.7 gallon tank. I am not a fish person so all info on Molly fish is welcome.

Beste Antwort:

Answer by desertcactus
Mollies will keep breeding. I have all females that keep having babies and I was told from petsmart is that they store the semen up to a year and they keep having babies. Mine have had babies twice and about were about six weeks apart. Right now I have some in the baby tank. Good luck to you and by the way you do need a heater, winter is coming, they need to be around 78 degrees, and a larger tank.

thats all you can put in there. not only is it reached it Maximum for a 10 gallon, guppies,swordtails and platies can only be put together because they all require a little amount of salt.
