You were right, I looked in the tank today and she has given birth, so far I've saved about 40 off of them, they're in a breeder net. Thanks ☺️ Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I know that she has been living with a male since long before purchase but recently she has been getting bigger. Is this pregnancy, if so how far on is she and when do I put her in her breeding net, thanks Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

The Molly's need to develop their colour, you will see that gradually overtime their coloration will develop and they will be silver, some Molly's develop colour faster than others, hence why some are already silver and some aren't ☺️ I hope this helped Sent from my iPhone using Aquarium Advice

I've had her in a breeding net for the past 4 days she's just getting thinner it's weird

I want to cross a white molly with something, what would make a nice hybrid with a white molly? She's platinum white.

You said she has been in there for the past two years, the average lifespan for a molly is about 1 1/2 - 2 years, she may just be getting old. Think about humans, we can't walk properly when we get old, fish can't move properly when they get old either. Hope this was useful, Thanks

they are livebearers and have been revealed to a male so youve got a 99% chance that they are! normal gestation period is 4 weeks.

I have this female molly in my tank, she looks heavily pregant but has been like that for the previous 5-6 months, for the past two months she seems to be very thin under the gills. I at first thought she wasnt eating but she is eating fine, she has had babies but they all came too early as the...

Today I had to euthanise my molly fish because it had its body broken and it couldn't swim it could just lay there and breathe, which was not good quality of life. It was a black male molly and I don't know if it's gotten my white female molly that i raised from birth pregnant. Always a downside...

Did he make it? I lost my black molly today as by breeding trap fell into him and crushed him, I had to euthanise him as he wouldn't make it anyway. I spotted him when my gourami started nibbling on his crushing body... It's so sad when a pet dies. :(

How long is a piece of string? It's a variable in time as to how long it will take, if you look out for the fry and keep them they will start to look like the mother so you'll know then

Put some sponge on the holes, this will keep the oxygen from the filter running through it and you won't have to worry about any escapees ;)

How about you revoke all of the Otos to a small cheap tank for now, if nothing happens then suspect it's something that the Otos are doing, they may be fighting, if a cardinal or the ram gets any injuries the re home the gouramis and return the Otos, sounds like effort but it's something's life...

Mosquito fish get pregnant all the time, if she was ever in contact with a male mosquito then chances are she's pregnant, the beauty of a mosquito fish birth is they can have up to 400 fry which is a great food source if you're controlling your tank overstocking, she definitely looks pregnant so...
