Really? I think she was pregnant

Sometimes they will not give birth if they are stressed or too cold

She is like this almost from a week

 

Its okay. Just keep water quality pristine and keep water parameters constant.

My molly was like this for more than 2 weeks before popping out three dozen fry.

Add some aquarium salt if you want to. (Do not add all at once, mix in a litre of water and add some of this water to tank gradually over the 3-5 days)

 

She is like this almost from a week

Any update?

Sorry. I was busy in some work ..
Yes she gave birth to 45 fry. But something is happening now, they are now a week old but every day fry are dying , I have one more batch of fry of previous molly but they are all well and they are 3 week old. But this fish fry are dying they sit on aquarium bottom and do not move much and after some time or next day I found thrm dead. Please help.

 

It could be the eggs were damaged because she held onto them too long. There's not much you can do in that case. It's good she was able to give birth. How is mom doing?
