Got her at PetsMart GA. Probably a common molly, but looked everywhere and can not find anything that looks like her. Thanks!http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Js6oey ... ature=channel_video_title

She's a pretty Lyretail, possibly Sailfin. I'd call her coloration silver freckled, for lack of a better term, but she's not a good example of it.

One thing you can be certain of is if she's from a chain store, there's plenty more like her.

I suggest an extra long quarantine for chain store fish.

I'd say she is probably the offspring of a silver molly and a creamcicle molly. I have one similar that appears to be the offspring of a dalmatian and a creamcicle. The female dalmatian was in my tank and the creamcicle she encountered before I bought her.

Steve:
That is an aquarium strain, not a species as such. That does not detract from its beauty though. It is a very attractive fish.
I will not second guess Mel when it comes to aquarium strains of molly, she is quite experienced with them.
