Baby black molly help! 3 gallon tank? ASAP!?

Question

im getting a 3 gallon tank with filter and heater with 2 plants at the least will that be ok for 30 babies? sadly 20 babies died! ugh idk what happend to them RIP babies! ok so help!! please!

Answer 1

Those tanks are way to small even a ten gallon is two small for a mollie at the least you need a 20 gal tank for mollies to be happy and content don't waste you time with those small ones except for breeding purposes  

Answer 2

3 gallon is too small, get a 10 gallon tank with all the proper stuff (heater, filter, plants, use aquarium salt, etc).  Get some cat fish (algae eaters).  Unfortunately mollies are not very resilient fish, their life span is very short.  I stopped getting them because of that and stuck with clown loaches, cat fish, pond goldfish, etc.  Some of those fish can live up to 20 years.  Tropical fish that die within a month or a year is too sad!

Answer 3

The tank is too small for 30 mollies. Get a bigger tank.

Answer 4

Yes that will be good, just move them out as fast as you can b/c that is to small for the fry as they get larger.

Answer 5

if the fry stay small for a while then maybe id suggest alteast a 5gal, but it could go,WARNING!!they will be veery overcrouded

hope i helped

Answer 6

Your tank is way too small.Get a ten gallon at the very least and plant it heavily.

Answer 7

Why not just upgrade to a ten gallon? A ten gallon aquarium is 11.99 at Petsmart, and you can get a small whisper filter for the same price. The three gallon tank is too small, and if you start big, you save money down the line.
