yesterday i was given 2 black mollies and 10 fry by my sister that she had in her marine tank to get everythin started. both the mollies are female and i have a male red wag platy (buyin more platys 2moz) which seems to be extremely horny ever since i introduced them into the tank. Is it possible to for them to succesfully breed or is he purely just wasting his time?

poor guy's frustrated :lol2:

it's possible for platies to breed with swordtails (tis how we got lovely red swords in the first place) and i'm pretty sure it's possible for mollies and guppies to breed but not 100% sure on that one

he certainly is, he wont leave their side :lol2:

so you dont think its possible?
