S/o - How Long Till Molly Fry Sexually Mature?

[Birdie]

So how long until the randy little devils start reproducing themselves??

(didn't want to hijack the thread about how long until they are fully grown - as I imagine the answers are not the same......)

Approximately 4 months is the best I can figure it from my experience.

Hmm, that's good then - I've got some that are only 6 weeks old, but a few are absolutely rotund. Picture a tennis ball with mouth at one end and a tail at the other But I refused to truly believe that something 1cm long could be reproducing - (well, not without being an endler or similar )

Seem to be very healthy though - eating like little piggies, definitely not constipated or bloated, very lively, sociable and inquisitive. Maybe it's just the first part - the eating like piggies part that's the problem Note to self - cut down on rations

They will sex out at 4-5 months but some males may hold back untill their 8 or even 12 months old befor maturing.
