Wow, looks like she's about to burst! Strange that there's no dark gravid spot. I know with mollies they are not as transparent as guppies so you don't always see the gravid spot in them - but with a white molly I would have expected to see a little something.

Is she eating/swimming/breathing etc normal? Just making doubly sure she is pregnant and not suffering swimbladder or other type of gaseous problem.

If she defo is pregnant, it can't be long before she drops. Are you intending on rearing all the fry once they are born?

are her scales slightly sticking out there? i cant tell if its her or the net.
are you 100% sure shes pregnant and not got dropsy?

when you view full size image it seems to me her scales ARE sticking out? :(
 
she had the fry after she had about 40 ish i was over the moon :) but it looks like the outher molloys are pregant also lol


Had to change my name from welshy9 to welshy as i had a validation problem :(
