Lyretail mollies

[terryeckel]

I have a new 16 g tank and the first fish i bought for it were 3 orange lyretail mollies. now i've got a dozen or so babies. will it hurt to add a few corys ?? i can keep a few of the babies but really can't handle all 12. what do you usually do with extra fish ? how long does it take for them to get fairly big ?

Don't keep any babies. Your fish need a 30 gal for three mollies and 6-8 cories, plus a few others.
You can rehome the fry
I sell mine at my LFS
