    Panda molly hoodlums

    The last week or so I have noticed my juvenile panda mollies harrassing my white skirt tetras. :ermm: These 3 hoodlums were part of the same batch of fry and hang together in the tank. I have black skirt tetras as well and they show no interest in bugging them or any other tank inhabitants...

    Two dead very bloated dalmation mollies

    I only added salt after reading is was good for the fish. In fact, I add aquarium salt to all my tanks and have not seen any issues.
