Paul's in Surrey has a salt water Molly tank that's pretty cool. I bought a male and a female - the male died right away but the female is great - eats algae all day and is no trouble. Definately odd to see an orange molly swimming sided by side by a spotted puffer though ...

If they stay near the surface all the time, they could be having problems acclimating.

mine would play in the current, they looked like they were having alot of fun (for the first week). my mollies also spend alot of time at the surface, they do there runs of the tank and pick at the glass most of the day but there "home" seems to be at the top in a low current spot (always the first to the food). 3 months in.
