Mollies are a peaceful and popular aquarium favorite. The Sailfin Molly is so named due to its distinctive dorsal fin. The Orange Sailfin Molly is orange in color. Best kept with other peaceful fish in a well planted tank with plenty of open swimming area so the sailfin of the male can develop. They prefer a degree of salinity in their water. It is highly recommended that the tank has one teaspoon of aquarium salt per two gallons of water.
