Hello everyone,
I've spent a lot of money on my aquariums and now am looking for a cheap alternative to buying a tank seperator and plants for the molly fry to hide in. Has anyone had any experience with plastic pop bottles? I have a bunch sitting around the house, and was thinking of drilling many small holes in a couple and placing them in my birth tank with my female mollies. This way the little fry can swim in the pop bottles to get away from hungry adults.
I know a lot of people say that mollies are pretty good at not eating their young, but mine seem to really like to chase and eat them.
I would imagine that the plastic bottles would be pretty safe for the fish if they are safe for humans to drink out of but I could be wrong about that.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.
