A few of you may remember me posting a while back asking what is the best fish to breed. I took some of your suggestions and went out to buy some balloon mollies, platys, and guppies. I now have 11 balloon molly fry, 40 red platy fry, and around 50 guppy fry all from 4 fish, and in a 15 gallon tank. The Platys have not grown at all. Is this normal? They will be three weeks old on monday and are only the size of new born guppies, just a little thicker. THe balloon mollies have been doing well eating and growing and are about twice the size of the platys ad guppies, aside from a few random balloon molly deaths. If anyone knew why the balloon molly fry were randomly dying please tell me. Also, the tank has a heater and plenty of space and I'm getting more BBS tomorrow or Sunday.
Thanks, Jay
