Pregnant guppy

[Little cherub]

Hi all i have recently noticed that one of my female guppies is pregnant which ofcourse is great news , although my 2 male guppies are constantly bothering her and are totally ignoring the other females, i really want her to go through the whole of the pregnancy and not loose the fry but am worried that the males will stress her out to much and she will loose them. Would it be best to move the female into my other tank which has 3 Zebra danios in it and lots of hiding places for the fry or to take the males out and leave the female where she is with 3other females and 2mollys. Any help would be fantastic.

I say move the female, but carefully and gently... a tank with more hiding spots is much better for the female and her fry.
