Mollies- Mollies- Mollies: All You Need To Know In One Place, April 12, 2000
This review is from: Mollies: Keeping & Breeding Them in Captivity (Paperback)
For my birthday several months ago I recieved a 20 gallon aquarium. After looking at fish from several stores I decided to buy several different kinds of mollies. I would like to breed them eventually. I looked all over for a book specifically about Mollies. Most books give you general information about all kinds of fish. I read many books, but did not feel like I was getting all the information needed. Finally, I found this book! It has given me so much valuable information on these beautiful and fun fish. For Example, Mollies like a warmer tank and a bit of salt to keep them healthy and because of this it is better to keep them in a dedicated tank. Information from setting up a tank they like, disease and how to treat it naturally, breeding, raising fry, and other extremely valuable information. All on Mollies! And the pictures. OOOHHH ! ! ! They show beautiful pictures of Sailfins, Lyretails, Balloons in variations of colors. The pictures are high quality close-ups, no fuzzies ! They are absolutely beautiful. I even discovered a few new colors I want to get like the Chocolate and Red-Splash. I could go on, but let's just say if you want a book to give you the information you need on Mollies, THIS IS IT!

Mollies, March 15, 2002
This review is from: Mollies: Keeping & Breeding Them in Captivity (Paperback)
This book has excellent photos of different types of mollies. The pictures were bold and beautiful. Some of the best I have seen of fish. The text is very large and with all of the photos this does not leave a whole lot of room for information. The information it gave was helpful but I was looking for more.

GENERAL OVERVIEW, February 10, 2005
This review is from: Mollies: Keeping & Breeding Them in Captivity (Paperback)
This book lacks specifity such as not giving exact parameters
for water/breeding conditions, i.e the book states "mollies in general prefer their ph on the alkaline side of the ph scale."
No exact figure is given & for the beginner in particular this could present a problem. This book appears to be old but I cannot confirm this as there is no publishing date listed.
There are also too many photos which would be wonderful if this were an aquarium picture gallery but the photo space could have been better used to supply more detailed info.
