Molly Balloon Platinum White Lyretail – Blue Eyes

The Molly Balloon Platinum White Lyretail is a stunning livebearer that adds elegance and unique charm to any freshwater aquarium. Its brilliant platinum white body, paired with a graceful lyre-shaped tail and striking blue eyes, makes it one of the most eye-catching Molly varieties available.

This peaceful and hardy species is an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced aquarists. Balloon Mollys are known for their round body shape and lively, active swimming. They do best in groups and thrive in well-maintained aquariums with plants, driftwood, and open swimming space.
