Very Strange Molly Behavior

[stargirly1208]

my dalmation molly is acting really weird. she is pregnant and pretty big but today she is swimming straight up and down and shivering. and then she stops and swims like nothing is wrong. and then she'll do it again.... is she maybe trying to push her babies out? i've never seen this behavior before. she is definitely not sick at all! it's just so weird!

My Molly did almost exactly the same thing a couple of days ago and gave birth last night!

just an update. the molly i was talking about finally gave birth. only 2 fry so far she still looks packed though! so hopefully she'll have the rest and i can catch them before the other mollies do! i don't want to put her in the breeder because i've had bad luck with that. but yay for balloon molly fry!!!!! i hear they're hard to breed but she's pretty
