I bought my balloon molly roughly 4 weeks ago, however, this past week I’ve noticed she has more of a defined tummy than she did. Since I had her she did have a round belly but it does seem a little larger now. It also has a slight boxy look to it. It think it’s really hard to determine whether she is actually pregnant or not because of that natural round shape balloon mollies have anyway. What do you think? Does she look pregnant?

I'm absolutely not an expert here, but think the answer is probably yes from the picture - looks out for a dark spot near her anal fin which I cant quite see in the pictures.

My experiences of 4 months Molly ownership is if she has ever been near a male, or bought from a fish shop in the last 12 months then she is pregnant ha ha!! I have an abundance of fry
