Mollies
I have had my mollies for over 3 weeks now. 3 female and 2 male. The female's have been pregnant FOREVER it seems. I want them to have babies already lol. What is the gestation for a mollie?

Re: Mollies
I believe all livebearers are 21-30 days. My Mollies push to the 30-day mark usually.

Re: Mollies
they can also hold their babies longer if they don't like the tank parameters. You can encourage them to birth by turning up the heat in the tank a bit, too...

Re: Mollies
what kind of Molley? would you happen to have a pic of this pregnant Molley>
I've got a Black Molley that was "plump" when I got it, and it's only gotten fatter since I've had it for almost a month... it looks like it's going to pop right now, but I don't know if it was just prego when I got it, or if it's just a glutton, lol |

Re: Mollies
Sailfin Mollies. Unfortunately 1 died :( She looked the biggest too. The other ones have pop eye right now, so they are being treated. I hope it doesnt affect the babies. But after that I will take pics. I have some but not recent, so you cant see their belly. They are bigger but not plump.. I just dont understand it

Re: Mollies
well it turns out mine was just a fatty :P she's shrinking down now and leaving strings of feces all over the tank... I think she bloated up because she got a hold of some left over blood worms that my African Dwarf Frog didn't eat, lol
now it's time for a gravel siphon... nasty Molly... |

Re: Mollies
Yeah mine are no longer fat. They are having other problems now. I am getting annoyed, I treated them for pop eye, now pop eye is almost gone but they are all at the surface of the tank breathing funny. One or two have white stuff ( doesnt look like ich, but possibly). One of the Mollie's fins are messed up, like it looks eaten away by something :(. I am done with Mollies if and when these die. I am going to bring them into the LPS and just give them to them.
