R & K Aquatics

Gold Mollys

Tank size

A minimum of 25litres is recommended with 75litres for larger groups.

Water Parameters

temper ranging from 24-28 degrees Celsius is recommended. Ph 7.5-8.5 with a carbonate hardness (KH) of 7-12

Maintenance

Perform regular 25% water changes weekly to maintain high water quality.

Substrate & Plants

They prefer planted tanks with space for swimming. While they adapt to fresh water, they often thrive better in brackish conditions (adding Marine Salt) to prevent issues with fungus and wasting disease.

Diet

Mollies are omnivores and grazers. Feed high-quality flakes, pellets, and freeze-dried foods, supplemented by frozen foods and veggie-based foods (spirulina) to control algae.

Temperament & Tank mates

Good in community tanks with similar-sized fish (platies, swordtail's, Tetras, Gouramis). Avoid small invertebrates as they might be eaten, and avoid aggressive fish that may fin-nip
