Diet: Balloon Mollies are omnivorous and have a versatile diet. They will accept a variety of foods including high-quality flakes or pellets, vegetable matter such as blanched spinach or lettuce, and live or frozen foods like bloodworms, brine shrimp, and daphnia. Providing a balanced diet with occasional vegetable-based supplements is beneficial for their health and coloration.
Temperament: Peaceful
Schooling or Non-Schooling Fish: Non-Schooling Fish (Balloon Mollies are non-schooling fish, but they prefer the company of other peaceful community fish.)
Possible types of tank mates: Balloon Mollies are peaceful and can be kept with other peaceful community fish such as tetras, guppies, swordtails, and peaceful catfish species. Avoid housing them with fin-nipping or aggressive species.
Behavior: Balloon Mollies are a selectively bred variant of the common Molly species, known for their unique appearance with a rounded, balloon-like body shape. They have a variety of color patterns, including black, white, gold, and combinations of these colors. Balloon Mollies are generally peaceful and active swimmers, adding liveliness to the aquarium. They are well-suited for community tanks and can adapt to a wide range of water conditions. Balloon Mollies are livebearers, meaning they give birth to live fry instead of laying eggs. They are relatively easy to care for and are popular among both beginner and experienced aquarists.
Fun Fact: The Balloon Molly's rounded body shape is a result of selective breeding for a genetic mutation known as "balloon" or "potbelly" morphology. This mutation affects the shape and size of their swim bladder, resulting in their distinctive appearance. The balloon-like body shape adds a unique charm to these fish and has contributed to their popularity in the aquarium trade.
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iβve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
