Assorted Balloon Mollies (Poecilia sphenops var.) are a charming and popular collection of fancy mollies, offered in a delightful mix of colours including black, white, gold, dalmatian, and more — each with the distinctive rounded "balloon" body shape that gives this variety its endearing, almost cartoon-like appearance. Hardy, peaceful, and easy to keep, balloon mollies are a perennial favourite in community aquariums and make a lively, colourful addition to any freshwater setup. As livebearers, they are also easy to breed, making them a rewarding choice for beginners.
