| I got a dalmation molly bout to have babies, shes isolated with plants n clean water in a 10 gallon but i was wondering if i can put bottom feeders with her to keep the tank clean or will they eat the babies 2 like tha mama? | |

| I had nerite snails, baby bushy-nosed plecos and cherry shrimp in the tank when my balloon molly had her first litter. There were 1 or 2 other fish in there, too. I didn't discover the babies (I thought I'd purchased a male molly) until the next day and I don't think any were eaten. There were 2 stillborn lying on the bottom. I moved the fry into their own tank with a couple of snails and the next day the molly mom had more babies, which also survived until I discovered them and moved them. | |
