Got 2 new balloon mollies. I always swore i wouldn't have them, as I don't care for them that much. However, we were given one as a birthday gift for my niece and she is very sweet. We went and got a 2nd one today for her as a companion, as she will be the only balloon in the tank.
The one we got today had about 8 or 9 babies so far. All but 3 of them are dead, and that is very sad. I guess the stress of being moved was too much for her. The three remaining ones are still going, but 2 look as though they won't make it. The third seems to be doing well swimming and stuff. Gave them a small amount of milk and peas for the others.
We had to move 2 silver molly babies (about 3 weeks old) to another fry tank as they were trying to eat the babies. I don't know if she is done having them, but I am so proud of her. I hope she has more that make it, but I am not hopeful she will.
