black molly
the guppy immedently greeted his two new room mates, at first i thought it was harmless after all the guppy when from a community tank to being isolated. then he continued to harrass the black fish then sort of cuddled with the white one. then the black one got upset and chased the guppy awa from the white fish. now like i said i am used to dealing with betta which i know are agressive. mollies and guppies are both supposed to be peaceful fish. please help, at this point the guppy has been removed once again, as he continues to prove he cannot not play nice with others.
 
having two male fish with only 1 female will cause agression for sure. either remove 1 male or add 5 more females to even it out. search the forum for telling the differance form a male & female fish and also you can try adding more coverage.
 
the white molly looks female 2 me, i cant tell the black 1 from that pic. can u put up another pic of the black one, a side shot like the pic of the white, then ill B able 2 help. -heart :wub: , ally86ozzy
