Baby Mollys
« on: January 26, 2012, 23:50:24 »
I have some baby Mollys (Mollies?) in my tank, it's only 16g. I've never had babies of any kind in my tank. I've got them all in a breeder's net, and they're doing well, my question is - when can I let them back into the main part of the tank and not keep them secluded? I don't want them to be eaten!

I have some cory catfish and otocinclus catfish in there, will they mess with the babies? I've already got them separated. I'm just wondering how long they need to be separated for.

depeding on how big your cats are, more then likely the mollies will hang at the top of the tank and be fine

I don't think you need to worry about the mollies. I've had them with cories before with no problems.

Also, mollies breed like crazy once they get going. You'll have more soon enough....
