Hi my balloon molly gave birth three weeks ago theres four thriving fish that swim and are getting bigger. However there is loads of wee tiny things i assumed where babies but not so sure now. Anyone help?
 
Hello. A photo would be nice. But, while you're doing that, make sure the tank water is extra clean. I would increase the amount of water you remove and replace just a bit and do this more often. The key to keeping any fish healthy is lots and lots of water changes.

Hello again. The photo doesn't tell me much. But, you don't have to be afraid to perform a water change. Just cover the end of the siphon with some material from an old fish net and attach it with a rubber band. You'll remove the water without the worry of catching any of your fry. A new sponge stuffed into the siphon will also work well as will pieces cut from a sponge filter you no longer use.
