Should I get some Mollies if my tank has a BTA ?

[Subnautica]

I love molly fish and having some in my tank would be awesome, but I heard they could be food for the BTA by accident. Should I do it?

I wouldn’t. I purchased 6 blacks to keep my new tanks cycled and they’re active fun fish. I wouldn’t put them in danger.. i’ve become quite attached. They are voracious eaters and appear to be doing very well in marine water. The fish keeper said they were sick with possibly a fungus and that she had just pulled some out as I approached her. She sold me 6 for the price of 4, expecting some loss. My thought is that the saltwater may save their lives and kill off anything they were carrying. I did lose one the first night I brought them home. But the others are very active and seem happy.
