Lyretail Molly

[dortiz24]

I have a black male molly and a female lyretail molly. They are constantly mating and from the females behavior she is quite open to it. I have finally noticed her gravid spot on her white but not so see through body. I've been trying to find photos of a pregnant lyretail so I know what to look for if she should get pregnant. I need to know the gestational period as well. I have other livebearers so I understand the common behavior but I need to learn the different gestations. Anyone know any websites; especially ones with photos? Thanks.

The best (though it is talking of guppies, it applies to mollies to I believe)

None have pictures of lyretails, but their pregnancy is quite similar to that of other livebearers
