I have two fish, a silver molly and a fancy guppy in a ten gallon. I am pretty sure the fancy guppy is pregnant. I was told this by the fish store and a few others. The silver molly is kinda fat and I'm unsure If she is pregnant but I put her in just in case. wish I knew when the fry are coming.
 
Guppy and Molly,

The molly looks almost squared off but I'm not sure. Some more side pictures would help. I need better pictures of the guppy preferably side ones.

Yeah she's pregnant and got about two weeks left.

But this is just a guess. She could have maybe 3 weeks left. But you will know when she only has a few days left because she will square off (looks something like this \___/).

Or do store bought ones work better?

So I went to this awesome fish store and got a few things! I now recommend if you're in Milwaukee Wisconsin area to go to aquatics unlimited. C:
I bought a sponge filter and it works great. I also bought five baby sail fin mollies to kind of test it out, they are all doing fine and exploring the tank. My adult molly and guppy seem uninterested in the babies. They are accompanied by a new baby angel fish too. She is so tiny so I figured id put her into the "baby tank" everything is going well!
