mollies
Mollies are popular freshwater fish known for their vibrant colors and placid nature, making them common in home aquariums. They originate from Central and South America and are livebearers, meaning they give birth to free-swimming fry rather than laying eggs. Mollies thrive in well-maintained tanks with stable water conditions, moderate salinity, and a varied diet. They are social fish that do well in groups and can live with other peaceful species. Their adaptable nature makes them suitable for beginners, but proper care—such as monitoring water quality and providing ample space—is essential for their health and vibrant appearance.
