Hi!
I have an aggresive male silver molly in a 10 gallon tank. The tank used to hold 2 chinese algae eaters (that I found other homes for) and 1 danio. It is now holding just the Molly and a yellow mystery snail.
I'm looking for ideas of a few other fish I could put in with the molly. The molly doesn't seem to have any problems with danios - I just don't think this tank is enough room for a school of them.
What about a school of neons? If the Molly got along Okay with danios (didn't feel threatened) do ya'll think it would do Okay with neons?
And how do I know it is aggresive? I tried to have it in a tank with a gourami in there and it immediately started attacking the gourami. Before I could get the molly in to a breeder's tank, it tore a small hole in the gourami's fin (btw - the gourami recovered nicely!)
So - any ideas?
Thanks!
