Is this a male balloon molly?


Recommended Posts

Howdy! About a year ago my sister's black molly gave birth. I took all the females and she kept the only male. They are over a year old.

Today I noticed my black balloon shaped molly chasing the others and paused when I saw his anal fin. This is a male RIGHT?

Oy! I've seen egg spots on my females and am sure the others are female but they are brothers and sisters. They've been together since they were born and have been in my tank nearly a year. Is it weird they haven't bred?

That's what I was afraid of! Do male mollies get along okay do you know? I can send him away to live with my sister and his brother! 

If you don't want to deal with fry then rehome the male. Also will pursue females to breed.
