	Sailfin Molly Aggression?
kayteekate Small Fry Posts: 12 Kudos: 7 Votes: 16 Registered: 09-Dec-2007	The guy at my LFS told me that male sailfin mollies are extremely territorial and aggressive with one another. Is this true? And what if there are no females in the tank, would the males still fight?

In a big enough tank with enough cover, they'd be fine, but if it's a smaller tank, it's much better to keep a single male and several females.

If all males they would be fighting over their territory. *Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info* Look here for my Betta 11Gal Desktop & Placidity 5ft Community Tank Photos Keith Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.
