My LFS really wants these fish, but I want to see if they are reasonable to breed. How long does it take for these giant mollies to grow to a decent size?

So, I found an unopened Aqueon Quietflow 30 in my house the other day and I thought it would be perfect for my upcoming 20 gallon shrimp tank (with a prefilter sponge of couse), but as I was assembling it, the intake pipe was completely loose, and it just falls out when you turn it around. It...

I see the concerns being brought up about the shrimp being eaten by the fish and after more research, I can see why. Right now my top plan is to raise shrimp on one side and other fish on another side. I will choose a type of shrimp based on my water parameters, but for a while that will be...

So, for the shrimp, I have 2 possible plans. 1. Breed shrimp alone in the tank for about 6 months to a year to let the java moss+shrimp population grow, and then add plecos, and finally guppies/endlers(still haven't decided between albino full red guppies or rainbow tiger endlers). 2. Breed...

My 3rd guy just passed away, so yes I did upgrade them for more friends. I upgraded them to a 55 gallon tank because I felt that for the 3 of them the 40 gallon wasn't enough. I've had them in the 40 since I got them about 6 years ago so I also felt they deserved some more space.

The tank would just be a big mess of java moss and guppy grass, so I'm hoping that the setup will keep a decent number of shrimp from being eaten. With the other fish breeding at the same time, though, would you say it would be possible to break even or even make some profit from the tank?

So, I am new to this hobby, but I have had family fish tanks before. As I've grown more interesting in actually getting into fishkeeping, I have wanted to start breeding fish. I have been researching aquariums for about a year now and I have actually scaped a few tanks forpeople, so my knowledge...
