    Red face Balloon Mollies???? whatever next?

    I felt the need to start a thread as I couldnt believe what I was seeing at the local fish store... Balloon Mollies!!

    At first I thought they were normal mollies that were preggers and had been segregated, but then I noticed the breed card.

    Oh my word! I was laughing at them. ROFL!!

    Do any of you fish keepers have these? and whats more, are they a delicate fish to keep?

    [edit] I also saw albino frogs... what great things they were!! Whay do you make of those??

    not sure about the mollies,but i think the albino frogs may have been clawed toads
    ok to keep on there own but not with fish tho
    i use to breed then years ago,fun to watch looks like some thing out a si fi film.they lay the eggs on the there backs,and a thin skin grows over the top.then the eggs start to hatch,the tobpols wiggle out of the skin of the frogs back.

    URRRGGGHHH!!!! Thats gross!

    The staff said they can live with other fish but not too small as they are carnivorous.
    Dont think I 'll bother. How about snails?? I want summink different to put in my new tank.

    snails are fine as long as you dont mind having millions of them in about a year
    Endless possibilities with fish-keeping.
