I have had one of my mollies and three guppies for three weeks. (Two guppy fry have been in a net inside the tank for two days less than that.) Today I added a mollie and a pleocostemus (sp?) to the tank. The original mollie is sort of shivering and turning onto its side by the other mollie. Should I be worried?

I am not sure if they have a mating dance, but they will chase each other. I would just provide ample hiding places for the old fish and hope that he will be okay.

No you should not be worried at all! They are just getting used to each other or they do want to mate.
