New baby mollies *Pic heavy*

MikeNE Jan 18, 2008 03:25 AM

It's been dead as heck here so I'm gunna post a message if anyone still comes around:
Well I finally came home today to find at least 18 F1 p. latipinna (sail fin molly) fry! I got the parents (2 wild caught trios) October 24th 2007 and have been waiting for some fry ever since. I've never had to wait so long for molly fry, usually they just come whether or not you want them to. I was able to get a few good pix, so here they are!!!

A small group atop one of the many rocks in the tank:

Here's a group of them hanging out at the top of the tank:

Managed a closeup of one:

Thought this was a good pic, you can see dad poking his head up in the lower left side:

Well I guess that's it for now, hope you enjoy the pix!

Ahh never mind, figured I'd post a few pix of the parents and such as well:

That is a gorgeous tank setup, and such adorable babies. Congrats! Sorry it's been dead here... do you know about the Tuesday night chat sessions? They are pretty fun - I stop by when I get a minute from school work (I'm a sr. in college). Good luck with your beauties.
