molly

Small tank swimmer

A molly is a small tropical freshwater fish popular in home aquariums, known for being hardy and easy to breed.

The name is also slang for MDMA, the psychoactive drug also called ecstasy, typically referring to the powder or crystal form rather than pressed pills: We took some molly at the concert. (Capitalized Molly is a given name.)
