 Are Mollys Reef Safe? Ok, well after a lot of reading my wife and I would like to add 5 black Mollys to our new reef set up. They have live young all the time and would make great little food for everything that caught them. I know whey can do well in higher salinity, but did not find anything about if they were reef safe or not. Any ideas? Thanks

| Re: Are Mollys Reef Safe? ok, cool. I found another forum where a guy had 10 of them in his 75 gal reef tank and said they do great with all corals and peaceful fish. They even schooled with his different chromis.

| Re: Are Mollys Reef Safe? Any idea how long it takes to acclimate? Should I do a slow drip in the QT tank over 6 weeks?

| Re: Are Mollys Reef Safe? No doubt drip would be best, but I just added 1/4 cup every 5 minuets for 4 hours and they are doing great.

| Re: Are Mollys Reef Safe? The only thing about molly's to consider is that they seem to constantly poop and that could mess with your water parameters.. I used black molly's to cycle my first saltwater tank, they had babies twice too...  |
