How long is it usually from a swordtail getting the gravid spot (and a bit fat) until they have babies. I mean the gravid if very faint. Not sure if it really is one or not. I have 3 swordtail "babies" left. Their about 9 months old. Could she be pregnant? If so, how long till births? Gravid just showed up.

Thanks
