One of my three molly fish gave birth to 15 babies, and I don't want them. The store gave them to me pregnant at the time (all three are girls), but i didn't know it. I don't want them to die, but my tank is to small to keep them, and one of the others show signs of giving birth in the next couple days.

It is tiny and a sandy greyish brown collor with darker spots. He is less than an inch long. He lives in fresh water if that helps at all . . .

We recently went and bought quite a few fish off some guy and the catfish he had i thought was going to be small but it is huge compared to the little guy i already have in my tank and he is just bulling my smaller one in a way. he as come so miserable since this bigger arrival,i think it would only be fair to part with the big one.The petshop is my only other option.

My sister and her bf's tank is super nasty right now...his brother, put a bunch of food in the tank for the lobster and crab, and didnt take it out for about a week. Ever since then, they have been getting this disgusting orangish algee...and they clean the tank every week...is there anything they could put in the water to get rid of this?
