Hey Everyone

Appartly I bought a pregeant molly and didn't know I did. Since this my first molly fry. I read somewhere that female mollies shimmer or something before they give birth. I was just wondering if that was true and how you can tell if she is going to have more babies? My roomate and I only saw six but I dunno how many she had. Do they have them over sereval days?

Re: Charlie

i don't recall my molly "shimmering" before she made french fries(LOL!!) but i think they give birth every 28 days(?). female mollies can store sperm also. my blk. molly had 3 batches w/out a male. your molly will get REALLY BIG(she will probally look almost square when veiwed from above) and if she is light colored, you can see a small spot near her anal fin before she gives birth. that's the gravid spot. it doesn't work 4 blk. mollies though!
