    Molly Fry

    fry In my experience with molly fry, unless you put them in a seperate tank or breeding net, the fish will eat quite a bit of them. You can pick up the breeding nets for around $5 at petsmart. My mollies have around 80 each time, and without separating the fry, I only have about 20 left.
