I came home with 3 creamsicle mollies and put them with 5 neon tetras and a small pleco... Now there are 4 additional little creamsicles :)
Will the other creamsicle mollies try to eat them? I think the tetras are too small to even try. Do I need to put them is some sort of isolation tank? If so, what do I need to do to make the isolotion tank a good environment for them? What do I feed them? What else do I need to know?

The other adult mollies will try to eat them and will do a good job of it. The best thing to do is place the babies in another tank or place a divider in your tank. They will be large enough to be safe in 2-3 weeks. Feed them finely crushed flake food. One key to good growth in young fish is extra clean water. Very frequent water changes will also be good for them.

they are each and every and each and every of an similar. White mollys are fish. safeguard them the way you'll different fish. it really is a livebearing tropical fish which may be extremely ordinary to reproduce. for most aquarists the major major difficulty isn't getting them to reproduce yet scuffling with them from breeding. If left in a tank with different adult fish, the toddler mollies receives eaten. Mollies will eat flakes, frozen, freeze dried and honestly stay foodstuff. reliable reliable fortune :)

My mollies had babies also. I placed them in a 5 gallon aquarium with lots of plants. So they can hide. And I feed mine brine shrimp. They love them. They are doing really good. Havent lost any yet!! But definetely seperate them from the other fish. They will eat them in a heartbeat.

The easiest and cheapest way, get a breeder the plastic one, put it into your tank and put the fry in there. the breeder will float on top of the water.
Feed them with "First Bites"
You should leave them in there until they are bigger then the mouth of their parents
Good Luck

yes they tend to eat their babies any fish it is possible (experience) go buy a little baby breeding net thing to set inside your tank until they get big enough to let out. we had over 3 dozen and ended up with 3.
