    So you don't recommend a mollie/platy breeding setup.

    I do like them and it’s fun to breed, just don’t think you’re going to recoup costs on them IMO

    Quite often you'll see complete setups for sale on Gumtree or Marketplace (Aquarium/ fish tanks), or equipment, livestock, etc.

    Hi @JGBeeslaar

    Welcome to the Forum

    Some good advice has been given, one thing i would like to emphasize is.. if you can, go for a bigger than 45l tank
    The bigger the better but even 65l will be better
    A small tank os much more difficult to keep your water parameters stable than a bigger tank
    Also there is always the tendency to land up overstocking which aggravates the situation or regret that you cant add more fish

    Good luck with project, look forward to seeing it develop
