maybe i could help?

you need to take care of your molly fries, no? you should put 'em in separate tank, until they're big enough to not get eaten. and you can also feed 'em with artemias or crushed powdered pellets... while there are some people who says that egg yolk also works for fries...
in this separate tank you may need to control it by yurself, filters can suck yur fry and kill 'em, so maybe you could put on a net around the filter so the fries won't get sucked, and make sure the filter is not too powerful. but it's fine if ou don't use filter, they're only gonna be there for a few days, they grow up fast.
you'll also need to give 'em hiding places, fish need to feel safe and have a place to hide if threatened, especially fries.

good luck and i hope yur fries grow well.

Caring for baby mollies is really very simple. The main thing you need to do is get them away from the adults. You can do this with another tank or using a breeder net or breeder box available at any pet store for just a few dollars. Simply feed them finely crushed flake food and they will do fine. Here's a few links with care instructions for mollies:
