Converting mollies to salt

Ive done both and had a approx 60% success rate dumping right in 40% with short drip acclimation and 35% with long drip acclimation. At this point I just dump them in. A note the silver ones don't acclimate very well but every other color and lyretail mollies acclimate well.

Thanks for the info
 
I dumped three in and they died within 24 hours. If I do it again, I'll acclimate them over a week or so.
 
I've never lost any and acclimate them over about 3 days. Done this with dozens over the years. Be careful you will start with a few and in some years end up with way too many lol.

Nobody sells them for sw in my area so I get 5 bucks per sub adult went from having to many to scooping as many babies I can every day.
