My Molly - How Long Till Drop?

[chigwellhammer]

Not the greatest of picture but can anyone work out how long my molly has until she drops? I would love to be able to put her in the breeding trap.

Thanks!

Any day now

Do you reckon i should stick her in the trap now?

She's squaring off, so will be any day now.
If your tank has plenty of hiding places then a lot of fry will survive, they're very good at hiding.
If you decide to use a trap, watch for signs of stress

Best time to put her in a trap is when you see her birthing tube.

I put her in the trap this morning and she seems to be happy Hopefully not much longer

It's fun watching them give birth

I ended up taking her out as she took longer then i thought but on Monday afternoon she gave birth to around 18.. I lost quite few and im down to 8 and they all seem to be doing good
