Hello,
My name is Dayle-Jessica I'm from the UK, 20 years old have been given a freshwater tank and am having some problems.
Please help! Im in such a pickle I was given a very large tank (to me) approx 2.5ft by 1 by 1.5. The people before me had the tank set up etc for a good 13 months. You can see specs on my tank thingy :/.
My problem is; I don't know where to start! When I purchased a couple of Mollies I spoke to the fella that was an "Aquatic Expert" - I wouldn't know! He said to add the Mollies would be fine (to add to the fish that i had researched and told him) but to quarantine for a week - which i did.
I'm concerned because my black molly strikes me as being pregnant, I have no male mollies in my tank so i presume she arrived with me pregnant, she is full and square in her tum and when she slides up the glass tummy forward its as if she has rainbow scales? and her poop shoot is bright white. I'm really stuck here, I have no idea what to do what to buy etc whether a breeding box or nursery is better and which one and what size and do i put anything in?! Argghhhh!
Also I don't know if my fish are good to stay together I done a compatibility chart that said they should all be ok a couple were cautionary due to my very timid Bala Shark but other than that they were fine. I worry about different water preferences etc.
I have 2 female dalmatian Mollies that are looking quite full.... HELP :'(.
Any help I could receive about the above topics would be amazing,
