    Hey all, My molly has been pregnant for about 4 weeks now, So the other day i put her in a Fish Hatchery, I did my water change yesterday (25%) as usual, Today once I came home I went to feed my fish and saw about 15-20 Fry in the hatchery and some deformed ones laying on the base and green/yellowish eggs, I've removed the mother and they all look happy swiming about any idea's for the deformed/dead ones? I dont want to cause to much stress on the fry.

    I would personally remove the dead/deformed ones to ensure a good quality of life for all.

    Congrats!

    How did they die? Did the adult mollies eat them?
