Molly Fry are quite hardy, and I wouldn't be surprised if you found others hiding under and around your plants and ornaments.. they grow quickly if you feed them ground-up fishflakes or ' HikariFirst-Bites'(powdered fishmeal).

I would keep your molly fry in your breeders net for until you think there getting to big for the net or until you know it's big enough for the molly not to eat him.


small bites and powder fish food usualy does good for them I think your suppost to feed them every 3 hours.

My mollies had babies 10 days ago and I find more with every water change. I thought I only had 2 and now my count is up to 6. They are quite fast and now the moms are starting to leave them alone. I put the male in a different tank with my silver molly girl so I guess we will see what happens next. My Husband is building a stand for a new to us 85 gal. where all my mollies can live together. The little ones will show themselves more as they get larger.

Good Luck
