I got Babies

[oscarfish]

Yeeehaaaa,
After buying 6 Black mollies earlier this week for feeders for my Grouch (toadfish) I woke up this morning and found 7 babies in the feeder tank.
Wooohoooo. Now all I have to do is pop out a few more and then that 2.50 a peice feeder fish won't be happening. The LFS wouldn't cut me a deal at all on Bulk Mollies so I have been paying 2.50 a peice for feeder fish for the Grouch.
For some reason he won't touch anything else, not the silverslides, not the frozen krill, not even the Silver Mollies. All he wants is Black Mollies. Go figure.

I would set up a different tank for the babies, the other mollies will eat them.......Atleast my mollies ate their young when I had them...

i think ur toadfish is racist:yes: . it's possible that the parents will eat there young but it doesn't happen at the store i work at. but a lot of fish will do that.best way to keep them alive get a breeders cage...it just sits rightinside of the freshwater tank. along with the parents but they are protected .
