Their distinctive rounded shape and peaceful personalities make Balloon Mollies a fantastic addition to a community aquarium. Available in a variety of colours, including black, silver and orange, they’re perfect for creating a colourful and lively display.

They’re also livebearers, meaning they give birth to live young rather than laying eggs. So, if you have males and females together, you could soon find yourself with lots of adorable little baby mollies swimming around your tank!
