I had a Mollie in my f8 tank for exactly 2 days. It always picked on my f8. When I woke up on the third day it was swimming around with it lower lip ripped off. The Mollie bullied the wrong fish. GSP's are generally more aggressive than f8's...don't think that is the best idea.

I have kept a mollie in a tank with 3 GSP's for a few months, they then started to chase him around so I gave the mollie to my mom. I recently gave away the smallest of my GSP's for two reasons: He was getting outgrown, and a 55G is really too small for two of them.
