What does MOLLIE mean in Scrabble?
noun
A small live-bearing freshwater fish of the genus Poecilia, popular in home aquariums; also spelled molly.
A mollie breeds readily in captivity and gives birth to fully formed young rather than laying eggs, which makes it a favourite starter fish for new aquarium keepers. The name covers several closely related species and colour forms, from plain silver to bright orange and black. Because the two spellings mollie and molly are used interchangeably by hobbyists, either form turns up in aquarium guides and pet-shop labels.
