Mollies

I'd like to know just how big they generally get. one site I looked at said 3 inches, and another said six. Also, how well do they get along with killifish? And would it be too much to put three mollies and two killifish in a 12 gallon tank?

thanks,

a molly? i think thsoe generally get to around 2" at most, not 6 "....also, i think that would be fine to have 2 killifish and 3 mollies in a 12 gallon.

 

lol, that was exactly what i was gonna say! lol.. yeah about 2 inces should be about right iv never seen a 6 inch one....and yeah they are ok to be together.

 

thanks guys for the help... does that also include the lyretail mollies? I'd really like to have a black, platinum, and one dalmation lyretails, and two golden lyretail killifish. I don't have my tank yet (I love to plan ahead) but I'm thinking of getting the eclips system 12... sounds good? oh, and I'm going to decorate with a mix of live plants and fake coral...

yep all mollies are around 2".....setup sounds good to mean but just make sure your tank is cycled so the fish dont get ssick on you

 

Also with the fake coral make sure all rough edges are sanded down.
