If I breed my female dalmation mollies with a male black molly(which I will get soon), does anybody know what color the fry will be?
 
Hi! I don't know much about mollies, but knowing genetics, the Dalmatian coloring is probably a incomplete dominance or possibly a codominance; so the black is a dominant trait so the babies will probably be mostly back and some that have little white specks. Hope this helps!! I believe that the black trait should be a homozygous dominant trait?
 
That sounds about right because I think that dalmation is dominant silver and black molly cross.
