If they look anything like this:

Then the answer is... No. They look too much like a betta.

 

Are you talking about adding Golden Mollies in with a Betta?

 

i think thats what the original poster was trying to ask

 

it certainly was. why else would i have asked?

 

I dont appreciate your tone whatsoever. You never did state that you were wanting to add Mollies in with your Betta. And I do believe asking is better then assuming!!!

 

Mollies and bettas aren't my favorite pairing.. mollies and platies like harder water with some salinity, whereas bettas are a soft water species that doesn't tolerate salinity. Mollies can also be bullies and nip at bettas terribly and if the mollies are brightly colored, aggression can go the other way as well.

Maybe you should consider a school of pygmy cories instead.

 

I had dalmation mollies with my first betta (Petsmart told me they would be fine together). As long as I kept the molly group big enough they left my betta alone and vice versa. I did have to make more frequent water changes though because the mollies produce a lot of waste.

 

Thanks Karlhague also im a he.

Ok well im sorry if you didnt understand my question. It was only you. I would have thought posting a question about a fish in the Betta fish compatibility section of a forum all about Bettas would have made sense... i cant possibly see how I would be asking its compatibility with anything but a Betta. If this is the way you treat "new" betta owners... you should be ashamed. How are you to know I have not grown up with family members owning the fish which got me into them? you dont know squat. maybe you should try to get to know us "noobs" before making assumptions.
Rant Over.

 

The more I read this forum, the more I think that compatibility all depends on your fish. I personally have a betta in a 10 gallon with a platy and a dalmation molly. They get along perfectly fine. There was like 5 minutes of checking each other out, then they left each other alone. I have also seen a few members keep guppies with a betta where most would say to definitely not do that.

My opinion is that if that's the fish you want, your tank is big enough and wont be overstocked, and you think your betta will get along with them, try it. Just always keep a close eye on them especially right after introducing them. And always have a back up plan. Like an extra tank for the trouble maker or taking the mollies back to the store.
