Went to Petsupermarket yesterday to get some dog food, and I don't know how I ended up in the fish aisle

, but I discovered a tank with stunning huge balloon mollies, with some enormous finnage!! Is that normal for balloon mollie, the finnage I mean, or is that some fancy kind? I was this close to take 2 home for my tropicals tank!

Usally males have the longer fins.

Ballon mollies are just so grea looking and
would look great in your tropical tank!

Depends On The Fin..
Because Some Have A Large Dorsal (?) Fin Which Makes Them The Sailfin Variety ^_^

Alexander, I would post a picture of my tank, but I am thinking about entering it for tank of the month as well. The plants just need a bit more filling in....

See Martinez, I am not the only one that has that problem!!

It must be the God of fatally mistreated and passed away goldies who wants to find good homes for the alive ones!

Thats funny, Martinez, the fish hobby actually started with a few dalmatian mollies in our house!! My daughter was into the 101 Dalmatian movie craze, but a Dalmatian dog was out of the question, so we went and got the dalmatian mollies!

Ranchugirl,when i was young i was also
into that movie lol.Thats funny how you got the mollies

yeah, i want the dalmatian mollies, because i had a dalmatian dog! it was the best dog in the world, i had her for 14 good long years. we got her when I was in 1st grade and had to put her down my sophomore year in college. i was depressed, but i know she's up there watching me. sometimes i still can feel her coarse hair as if i was petting her

so maybe the dalmatian mollies will be nice to own. who knows, maybe someday!
