This is a livebearer fish that requires the correct habitat for them to grow well and live a healthy happy life. Their aquarium should be planted as densely as possible, or have a thick mat of plants to use as habitat. There are related products that will help you choose the right plants for these fish below. Having a thick group of floating plants in the corner of the aquarium will promote healthy rearing of the new young fry offering protection and refuge! Every 60-70 days the female may give birth to young fry that are a couple millimetres long. Parents WILL eat their young if the babies do not have a hiding spot in plants. Many hobbyists use livebearing fish such as these Mollies, Swordtails, Platys and Guppies as a natural, healthy source of LIVE food for other fish such as puffers, pacu, and all cichlids to consume.
