Just picked up a couple new sword tails from my favorite store. I have a male and one female already in the tank. Didn't realize that these two girls looked noticeably larger than my current female. So I'm worried if they are pregnant and how far along are they.

Being live bearers its safe to assume all females are pregnant as soon as they are old enough and been in a tank with a male.
 
Well the spotted one had her babies last night and I was totally not ready. Did not think she was so soon so I was only able to save 8 of them. Rest unfortunately were probably eaten. The red one I have place in a breeder net (had it given to me) until my breeder box comes in and her babies will hopefully be safe from being eaten when she has them
