Pregnant mollies??

[Lankyjsg]

Unsure how to tell when mollies are pregnant, can anyone help??

The yellow black spotted lyretail you showed a lot, including the last photo, is a male. The other lyretail with a similar colouring is a female though, and you have a lot of other females (and a beautiful variety of mollies, congrats!)

So since you have males with females, they will almost certainly all be gravid at one point or another.

Yeah, I'd say the dalmations and the yellow lyretail female look like they're probably gravid. You'll be able to tell for sure when they're super round But if they've been around a male at any time, they can store sperm for months, even up to a year reportedly, and continue popping out fry even if you remove the males.

Any chance you could get a clearer photo or two of the black molly with the yellow tail? Think it might be male, but hard to see the fin properly in that shot. It's also a really beautiful molly, and I want one with that colouration now.
