Above is a pretty good shot of the male molly and two fry. All the surviving fry are females. They appear to be mixed with a dalmation molly. In the picture you can see the silver mixed with black. Also there is some dwarf hair grass they are swimming around. I never bothered to pull it apart so it would spread......
