Attached to this particular discussion (as most peeps seem to do, go figure, ya?) is a picture of Solnushka, a Molly of mine, and I would like to get some affirmation that she is indeed a female, otherwise I'll need to change name and probably buy some more molly's since that will put my male to female ratio 2-1 in favor of males and I just can't have that lol. Oh, and the reason I'm wanting to double check she's female is whenever she retracts her anal fin, it has the same appearance as the gonopodium of my silver short-fin, Loki.
On a lighter note, the other female molly, not pictured there, has lately been reclusive, hiding in caves and some of the rockwork I have in the tank. She's still got an appetite and when I can coax her out of that spot she happily swims around and eats. Her belly is getting bigger and sort of square-like in appearance, so is this just a habit of pregnant Molly's?
