First of all congratulations, its gonna be scary and exciting at the same time
Second, are you planning on having her give birth in the main tank by herself, or are you using a breeding trap? If you decide to let her be in the main tank, make sure there's lots of bushy plants(live moss is perfect ) for the fry to run to because many fish would love a live snack(including the parents) so watch out for the little guys. I find most of my fry will eventually find there way to the top of the tank and want to reside there so try to get some floating plants near the top as well. After she has babies, where are putting them? Having a spare 5 gallon tank or even a 1 gallon bowl will become useful for fry.
Good luck and keep us updated
