Dalmatian Mollie - nicest fish in the tank?

Question

Any notice if their Dalamation Mollie seems... "nice" in their tank? Mine flutters next to my Silver Dollar like it's in love and protects a little frog I have in the tank from the other fish--always swimming in between the frog and another fish like it is giving the frog its space. And it is the first to come to the tank when I approach. Any one out their have similiar experiences? It also is the most active swimmer! Love this little fish!

Answer 1

I'm surprised it's the most active swimmer.  Silver Dollars generally fill that spot in an aquarium.  Unless you have only one.  They are fish that need to be in a group of at least 4.  Otherwise they usually waste away and die.

Yes, mollies do seem to be nice.  They are the least likely of the common live-bearers to eat their young, and rarely do if they are well fed.
