Silver Mollies

Question
Typically, how long should fry be quaratined from the adult fish? I discovered 6 babies one morning but had to hurry out of the house. By that evening i could only find 3. I quaratined them ffrom the rest of the aquarium. It has been 5 days. Thank you.

Answer
Hi Mike

You'll want to keep the fry quarantined until they are large enough to be released into the tank without being eaten. Usually about 4-6 weeks, or until the fry reach a size longer than 1/2 to 3/4 of an inch.

Hope this helps, good luck!
