| KimKim08 Small Fry Posts: 7 Kudos: 3 Votes: 0 Registered: 17-Oct-2008   | I have 5 various mollies and one of them has turned aggressive. I know it's a female because I just watched her pop out 25 babies the other day. Is there anything I can do to calm her down? I separated the babies from her and I've tried putting a little more food thinking maybe she was hungry but it didn't work. |

What is in the tank other than the 5 mollies? Do you have any other fish in the tank as well? Another very important thing is how big is the tank? It could be you have too many males and she is chasing them away. 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.

| KimKim08 Small Fry Posts: 7 Kudos: 3 Votes: 0 Registered: 17-Oct-2008 | its probably the hiding places issue, my aquascaping is pretty sparce i actually planted some real plants the other day, just waiting for them to grow. and i know for sure that two of them are females since they both like to have babies all the time. i'm not sure about the other ones though. She attacks the plants i have too. maybe she's just psychotic? lol |
