Assorted Mini Mollies are a fantastic addition to any Australian home aquarium. These hardy, live-bearing fish are prized for their compact size, vibrant colours, and active personalities.

In Australia, they are particularly popular because they adapt well to various water conditions, making them ideal for both beginners and experienced fishkeepers.

Pro Tip: Mollies are natural algae eaters. They will spend much of their day picking at the surfaces of your tank decorations and plants, helping to keep your aquarium clean.

Essential Care Tips
Water Hardness: Unlike many tropical fish, Mollies prefer "hard" water. If your local Australian tap water is very soft, you may need to add mineral salts or crushed coral to your filter.

Salt Content: While they are freshwater fish, many Aussie keepers add a small amount of aquarium salt (about 1 tablespoon per 20 litres) to boost their immune systems.

Planting: They love a well-planted tank. Use hardy species like Anubias or Java Fern, as Mini Mollies might nibble on softer, more delicate plants.

Social Mix: Aim for a ratio of two females to every one male. This prevents the males from over-stressing a single female during breeding cycles.
