madwill Hobbyist Posts: 110 Kudos: 92 Registered: 10-Oct-2004	alright everypeople i went to sanibel for vacation and there are cool fish and such around so i went fishing with my little net..... i caught what seems to be a dalmation molly it has the gonopodium.... but it has a less raised back if you get what i mean..... anywho hes little under an inch. My main question is really would it need a brackish tank? i caught it in like a mangrove river the water was a strange red (if that means anything.)
