i own 2 aquariums.one is a 29 g that houses 5 cichlids and the other one is a 10g that houses 5 mollies ,a pleco and....15 cichlid fries,that are now a month old.i know what everybody must be thinking....well overstocked tank....but all the fish are doing great and with daily water changes i have been able to keep each and everyone healthy.the local fishstore will not take the cichlid fries until they are at least 1.5 inches long and they are still to small to be going into the 29g. i hate doing waterchanges too,but all the work so far has been worth it just to see the little guys grow bigger and stronger.when i cleaned my 29g this morning,another little fry from another batch was swimming past my hand...suprise...we had more babies.this time i am not gonna RESCUE them all because i have no intentions of starting a 3rd tank...the other 2 keep me rather busy as it is.
just wanted to share this story:D

What kind of fry do you have? do you have and pictures? are they large enough for the mollies not to eat? good luck on their growth
