Baby Mollies growth period?

[stevelikesfish]

Hi,

Ive just had arrival of 11 baby mollies through one of my female adults. Can anyone tell me how fast they grow from birth? I am hoping to sell them on to my LFS, but would like to know a good time period if possible... Is 4 weeks from birth going to mean they are a decent size?

Any information gladly taken!

Thanks

I'd give it a it more.
Mollies were my first (and one of my last, come to think of it, spawnings). Congrats and Molly-sized cigars all 'round! Jeff

I would check with your LFS to see what size they want. I raise mollies and sell them for in store credit to my LFS and they don't want them until they are about an inch and a half long. My mollies don't reach this size until they are more than three months old. What are you feeding your fry? I feed mine New Life Spectrum Grow and Nutrafin Max Livebearer Food as well as frozen daphnia.
