Platy or balloon molly?

Are balloon mollies and platies easy to tell apart? I'm familiar with platies, but I recently saw a balloon molly that looked exactly like one of my platies. I've always thought she was pregnant, but she hasn't given birth since I've had her (6 months). Her back also has a higher arch than I'm used to seeing with my other (20) platies. I will try to post a picture soon.

Either answer (yes or no) to your original question would be relative. In other words, what may be easy for one may not be easy for another, but in any case, we'll do our best when you add the pictures.

they do have balloon platies too. However, they really aren't fat like balloons. Can you get any pics?
