How to Breed Molly Easily at Home Step by Step.
Mollies are livebearers, which means their eggs develop inside their body so that live fry can be released. They are one of the easiest fish groups to breed in captivity and will mate regularly.
Raising the temperature slightly could help to initiate mating, but don’t go higher than 78°F. Males perform a courting display for the females when the female is ready to mate she will allow the male to fertilize her eggs. Sometimes the male tries to “sneak-copulate” where he approaches an unaware female from behind.
Females often choose to mate with the largest males. and guppies and mollies can also breed with each other.
After fertilization, it will take 35-45 days before the young are released. Larger females could release up to 100 juveniles.
The young need to be separated from the adults or they will get eaten. One option is to put pregnant mollies in a breeder's box before they give birth, the young are free to leave the box through small holes but the adults stay trapped.
You can feed them foods like broken flakes or live feed until they’re big enough to eat the same foods as the adults. At this point, they can be mixed back in with them.
