My dad got a pair of these one weekend. (One died a week after) but this one is still alive and kickin'. I just never found out what it is.

Second question is: how can you tell if it's male or female? Same way as platies or mollies? (I know those pics aren't clear enough I'll try to get more later.)

It's a balloon molly. It's not spreading it's fins out, so it's hard to sex it, but judging from the last pic, I would guess female. Can you get pics of it with fins more spread?

You sure it's a bubble belly? Because I got 3 yesterday and they look nothing like that? ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1423883501.444546.jpg
I'll try to get more pics as soon as I can.

Ok I think these are better pics. That was my other question..if it's a female, is she pregnant? ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1423884022.671005.jpgImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1423884036.155268.jpg

Its a balloon molly depending on the store they usually say assorted balloon belly mollies

Or if you want to get creative a bumblebee molly and it looks pretty pregnant if it wasnt like that originally when you bought it
