Question
Hi, I was just wondering if you could help me out with breeding my dalmation mollies. Do you have any tips or know how to have them mate?? Thank you :)

Answer
Hi Ruth,
There's actually no effort needed on your part when breeding Mollies. They breed very prolifically. If you have a male and female together its very very likely that your female is already pregnant.

Give her about a month or so and she'll be having babies I'm sure! Be sure to have lots of plants (especially bushy floating plants) as hiding places for the fry.

Best of luck and I hope this helps!
