GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO HANDLE FLORIDA TROPICALS 
MOLL IENISIA 11 IT 1P IN A AND BLACK MOLLIENISIAS 
These fish are large fish and naturally require more oxygen and cool aquariums . 
On arrival of a can of those fish, it is best to put in a good handful of salt 
* to every twenty (20) gallons of water into which they are put. In this way, 
* you will save all of your fish. Should you try to crowd them, you will find 
that they will die from many causes, Mollienisias are good feeders, but be 
careful and see to it that they eat everything, as they v ery seldom eat food 
t hat falls to the bottom . Plenty of room , cool aquarium“~and a salt bath 
once in a while is the best for these fish. 
On all other Florida Fish, add about three teaspoonfuls of 
salt to every twenty (20) Gallons of water when transferring 
them from can to their new home. 
This last is beneficial to 
Aquatic Plants.
