Saw other people showing off their mollies they bred themselves and wanted to do the same! These are all between the ages of 2-4 months and i have some more that are nearly ready to go into the tank with the big mollies :)
This is a juvenile i found as a newborn fry in my community tank three months ago. I was raising him in my baby tank but all other babies even the younger ones were outgrowing him so i added him to the main tank. at the time this community tank had all types of livebearers and a pair of killifish (the killifish have since been moved out) I presume this is a juvenile endler but i’d like some more opinions and some advice as to why he’s not grown much in the last month? Thanks :) ps ignore the tank cloudiness, took this pic right after feeding time lmao
My mollies do not seem to be getting pregnant. I have them on high protein diet of a mixture of bug bites and brine shrimp to fatten them up to encourage breeding. Tank is cleaned 50% every week it’s a 200L. I have a forest of live plants growing in the tank for the babies and i inspect every female every day to check for pregnancy but nothing ever happens. i have a good 3:1 ratio of females to males but nothing seems to be happening. I had seven babies born two months ago but that was it. I’ve been raising up these fry and they are nearly ready to go into the main tank with the adults but i really hope i can figure this problem out! Any advice is appreciated!!!
Fishkeepers of Ireland where are you buying your fish??? I want good quality mollies for my fish breeding hobby and i also just love the look of the unique patterns (i’d love to own the electric blue, green sailfin, calicos and honestly any multicoloured mollies!) I love raising up fry that show different qualities of both parents, making uniques patterns/colours! The last couple of times i’ve gone to seahorse aquariums dublin they’ve been out of stock/low stock in mollies and aquatic village online store is set up in a different currency and won’t allow me to order online? I’m not sure why. And any other online fish stores just say “assorted mollies” and i’d like to guarantee receiving something different than the colours i have already so i can know them apart and monitor their progress😭 If anyone has any advice at all pls help a fellow fish keeper out as i feel like its such a niche hobby in Ireland!!
Hey everyone i’ve had rabbit snails for about 9 months now and they are thriving!!! tonight i saw this little guy in the tank stuck in the glass and i was wondering is it one of their babies? I’ve had assassin snails previously but removed them six months ago but is there any chance it’s an assassin? if it is i won’t be putting it back in my tank as i love my pest snails lol
Hey everyone this is my Cavalier Gracie
She’s nearly four years old
She is spayed and fully vaccinated and regularly wormed
She’s been getting clipped since she was 1 years old at our groomers as we live in the countryside and she likes to roll in dirt so it makes for easier brushing lol
She’s only ever been clipped fuzzy- never to the skin and i’ve never had any issues with her coat being patchy when growing back. My parents brought her to the groomers four months ago and they clipped her to the skin 😭😭 and now her coat won’t grow back 😭
I understand that she is a double coated breed and looking back if i knew what i know now i never would have gotten her clipped
Does anyone have any advice on how to grow her coat back even and fast? She is on a high protein diet and has raw eggs multiple times a week and salmon oil in her food everyday. I’ve been lightly brushing her coat attempting to stimulate growth but nothing has worked.
Any advice appreciated!
