Hey there,
So, to start off, Hello, My name is Fallyn and I'm 15. I've had fish all my life. My dad bought me my first 5 gallon tank when I was 5 or 6 and I've loved fish ever since. I've had guppies, angels, cichlids, barbs, sharks, tetras, betas, a few species from my local lake that are unknown to me, and now mollies. My current set ups are a 10 gallon tank with 5 adult mollies and about 25 fry, although I'm currently looking for a 30+ gallon tank, and a 20 gallon tank with an angel and a gorami. I know 10 gallons is way too small for that many mollies, but its all I have at the moment.
My mollies are:
a dalmatian female named Abbey- she's responsible for about half of the fry in the tank
a black male named Steve- he's the alpha male from what I can tell
an orange male named Rick- he's very skidish and likes to hide in the little cave decoration, he's a lyre-tale
a silver female named Tina- she's the smallest and is responsible for the other half of the fry
a silver male named Rocky- I just got him today after my white lyre-tale female dyed only a day after getting her
around 20-25 fry- some are Abbey's and some are Tina's
My 10 gallon is very clean and the water is perfect (I test it almost every day because of how many mollies are in there) and it has lots of plants for the babies to hide in, its survival of the fittest for them!
In my 20 gallon, the blue gorami likes to hide behind the giant sword plant that takes up 60% of the tank- he's very shy. The angel is black and white and is always swimming around. They both are around 3 years old!
I also have 3 cats (all of whom love the tanks!), 2 rats, and 1 horse. What can I say? I'm an animal lover!
My mom and I take care of the tanks, and we love our fish- one day we'd like to have a 250+ gallon community tank with all kinds of fish. Since I'm new to mollies, any advice with them would be greatly appreciated!
