Balloon molly babies!!

[HeatherSweetness]

My black female had 16 babies!

She didn't look pregnant at all,however my white female is SO HUGE she waddles and won't have babies for anything. (I'm too anxious and she knows it!)

They were a bit smaller than sailfin and regular molly babies...I was suprised.

Anyways,just wanted to share...I love my balloon mollies.

Congratulations on the fry! I love balloon mollies too! My female balloon molly had 19 fry last week, but sadly she died shortly after. I also have a 4 month old molly and she's the pride of my life!

I had these two gals for a looooooooooong long time too and just now I get babies. I guess when you start to give up on hoping to have any the decide to drop a few.

What triggered my gal to drop,I changed about 50% of the water siphoning the gravel and cleaning. Put in new water,moved stuff around took some stuff out of the tank for more open space and she dropped in like 6 hours. That wasn't my intention,but it helped her along.
