Hi again, I have 2 White Mollies in my aquarium and 1 Black Molly.

The Black 1 is a Female and 1 of the White ones is also a female, I'm having a hard time telling which one is pregnant, I used to have a Black Male Molly before I gave him away to a friend that liked him...

It looks like both of my Female Mollys are pregnant, I've had 2 Fry so far in the past 24 hours.. But their still looking like they are about to explode. Now I'm not sure who the fry belong to since I used to have a Black Male also.. But I'm a little bit worried about my White Female Molly..

She used to be completly white like the male and her scales were shiny and all.. But now she has a coat of Grey on her back by her Dorsal Fin and Her eyes have turned almost completly black... I separated the Black Molly for 1 day as soon as I noticed the fry, but I didn't see any fry born over night so I let her go.. I also didn't see any fry anywere in the tank *Thinking maybe they belonged to the white molly*..

Meanwhile the white male molly left.. seems to be only attracted to the white female so I'm not sure if thats why her coat changed color.. is she stressed? and what should I do?

--- BTW I bread my guppies - Thanks all!!

mollies and guppies change colors as they grow all the time....courting and spawning is very stressful on fish...so it could be a combo....what size tank are they in? and do they have alot of hiding spots to get away from the male? 1m to 3-4 females usually is best so the male is kept busy with all his gals and doesnt pick on 1-2 females all the time

Yes they have plenty of room its a 30gal aquarium with only 10 fish

Also, one of my guppies delivered only one baby, and hasnt delivered more.. do you think she will?

Shawnie

she may have already delivered more and either ate them, or the other tank mates did

Aww I'll keep my hopes up, she's still huge
