What would u advice me to get for my tank. My tank can still hold some fish. I have a 29 gal tank. I have 1 platy and 1 balloon molly both males and 2 female sailfin molly and 2 female sailfin molly. I am thinking of getting 2 female balloon molly and 2 female platy or i should get 2 female balloon molly and 3 guppies 1 male and 2 female

Thanks

if you are mixing sexes of livebearers, i would advise you not to get anymore fish, just wait a month or so and your fish will start having babies......rapidly overstocking your tank for free!

"2 female sailfin molly"


Your male balloon molly will breed with the female sailfin mollies. I'd suggest one or two kinds of tetras given what you already have in the aquarium. Neon tetras, Lemon tetras, Black skirt tetras; any kind will fit in fine really. As far as the possibilities you suggested, adding a few more female mollies OR some female platies would be fine, but you might want to limit the number of livebearer females overall and avoid also adding guppies simply because you'll be up to your ears in babies within a couple months if you have too many female livebearers.
