Easy. What you'll want are simple brine shimp for your molly fry. You can buy thousands of eggs for $5.00 at any pet store. Create a brine solution in a small tank (bettaautolinker.com autolinking image size, 10 gallon or less) with plenty of aeration. Once the shrimp start hatching, do some 10% water changes until you eventually have freshautolinker.com autolinking image water w/aquarium salt.

Feed your bring shrimp a piece of cucumber every now and then, and scoop out the shrimp and feed them to your fry. They will LOVE them!

I'm sure they can "breed", not really sure what breedout means.

Better yet, buy decapsulated shrimp from Kens Fish Home of Quality Fish Food, And Supplies At Excellent Prices.. .
They can be placed into the tank and hatch over about 5 minutes.

Also, try weighed down pieces of zucchini, molly's need a high percentage of veggie matter in their diet.

Too much protein will lead to digestive issues.
