Gold Dust Molly

Remarks: A perfect starter fish! Mollies (Poecilia sphenops) are peaceful community fish that reproduce with ease. They are livebearers, meaning the females release live fry rather than laying eggs. It is recommended to keep more females than males, as males can easily harass females with relentless attempts to reproduce, leading to stress in the females.
