Gold Lyretail Molly

The Gold Lyretail Molly, Poecilia sphenops, is a species of freshwater fish (live-bearer) that is closely related to the green swordtail (X. helleri). They make a great addition to a community tank to add a bright splash of gold that is sure to catch your eye. 

Males and females can be distinguished in a few ways, the main being the presence of a gonopodium (stick shaped reproductive organ). Males will also have a slightly pointed tail (caudal) fin.

Please Note: All fish shipments have a 100% Live Arrival Guarantee when shipping with Overnight (1 Day) option. All other options void our Live Arrival Guarantee for fish. 

The Gold Lyretail Molly can reach a max length of around 5 inches. 

We feed our fish a mix of frozen, live and prepared foods including daphnia, baby brine and cyclops. We also supplement their diet with a mix of Northfin Veggie and Community.

Gold Lyretail Molly

I received 3 female and 1 male gold lyretail mollies. They are a beautiful yellow gold color and good size, very healthy looking fish. I have ordered fish from Flip Aquatics before and have always been very pleased. Thank you Flip Aquatics. Sue

Mollies

I ordered 5 gold lyretail mollies. I got 6 and they all looked great after shipping. There was a nice mix of males and females. All of them are doing great. I also ordered two mystery snails and got 3. They were quick to wake up and doing great.
