About a month ago we brought a black molly home from the store, and it had 8 babies in the bag once we got it home! we took 7 back to the store but we kept one for ourselves

We have the baby in our tank in one of those overhanging plastic cubes with holes in it to isolate him from the other fish so nobody eats him or anything.

how long do we keep him in this before we can let him roam the tank ? how big does he need to be ? currently he is about half the size of my neon tetras and about a month old

we have a 20 gallon tank with:
- 1 clown loach
- 2 serpae tetras
- 4 neon tetras
- 1 guppy
- 1 black molly (the baby’s momma !)

( I have a bio wheel filter )

thanks!

Hello- I keep reading that Black Molly fish due ‘best’ with salt. I have several other community fish and I dont know how salt would affect them:

20 gallon tank
-1 black molly
-1 clown loach
-4 neon tetra
-2 serpae tetra
-1 angelfish

It always says that Mollys do ‘best ‘ with salt, but it is not necessarily detrimental to thier survival? i have also read in places that they dont really need salt ? Does anyone have any personal experience ?

Can the Molly live a normally happy life with unsalted water ?

Thanks !

I just finished my 8×8x8 ft. fish tank, I have it all setup, now I just got to know what fish to add. I might add 30 various pygogenus piranhas, but im thinking of doing a few pbass,a black and silver arowana, a jardini arowana, a couple motoro stingrays, an alligator gar, an florida gar, and a spotted gar. What else should I add?

Cichlid, orange and black spotted…

Recently my Black Convict Cichlids had about 100 babies. My tank was already overcrowded before the guppies. I have 5 adult cichlids in a ten gallon tank with a lot of hidding places. They have been doing really well. But now the parents of the guppies are extremly aggressive. Should I get rid of the guppies and how?
