SomethingFishy77 Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 I have a pair of lyre tail Balloon Mollies in my community 75 gallon aquarium. My question is will all of the fry be balloon mollies or will there be a mixture of lyre tail mollies and balloon mollies? thanks for any help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottieB Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 Hi! As I understand it the ballon trait is recessive. So if both parents are balloon mollies and we are in a perfect world you should get all balloon fry. However things do not always comply with simple Mendelian genetics. But if those are the only mollies in the tank you should get 100% balloon fry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
