:o Hello everyone.. glad to have found a local forum. I have 2 fish tanks, 55 and a 29 gal. with freshwater tropical fish. Fancy guppies, lyre tail black and silver spotted mollies, fancy platys, 2 plecos and 2 red tail sharks. The 55 gal. is used for the older fish and the 29 gal. is used to put the babies in. I like saving the babies to watch them grow, especially the guppies. Well that was a little bit about me. I look forward to using the forum and site.

Hi Micki! I've got a bunch of mollies as well and it is fun watching them go from eyeballs to full fledged fishies. Glad you found us and yes, post pics!

Welcome to the site!

I too have kept guppies in the past and I think it's really interesting to see the differences in the livebares and the egg layers.

welcome! Very nice tanks! Glad to have you here!

Thanks again everyone for being so friendly. I have had fish off and on ever since I was a kid. I really love them. Always thought I was kinda different, cause I like saving the fry of livebearers, I just cant bear for any of them to never have a chance at life.
I like mixing the colors of the same species and see what kind of fry you get. Its interesting. The baby mollies I have came from the black marbled lyretail mollie and she had been with one of the gold lyretail mollies. Her babies came out mostly silver with black specks and I have noticed a few have a gold spot here and there on their bodies and some have a pale yellowish tint to their silver. They are only about 2 months old now and should get more colors and/or black spots later. They are all really cute and growing like weeds, I have about 25 of those that are now in the big tank.
Well thats a little bit about me. Thanks again ya'll and I really like this forum, glad I found ya.
