What kind of fish? Have you got a male and a female in there, or just a female, or what? Sometimes females get egg bound (get blocked up with just unfertilized eggs, hopefully that isn't the case) I just don't know enough about your situation.

Are you sure the fish is pregnant? I have a female Dalmation Molly that is huge - nearly 3" - that always looks prego, but isn't. Mollies can be difficult to tell if they are pregnant, especially the black ones.

The male has a gonopodium, that is what you are calling a "thing", it is a modified fin and it is what delivers the sperm. It may or may not have fertilized her eggs It is still kind of hard to tell because we can't see her side very clearly in the photos.

I think mollies will hold off having babies until the conditions are right, so a molly not having any babies for a long time in a fairly new tank doesn't sound unusual to me. If she has gotten much bigger recently it's possible she will have babies soon.

It would really help if you could get a picture showing her side so we could see the kind of silvery area where her internal organs are and the area where her gravid spot should be so we can see the condition of her gravid spot and the contours of her side & see what you mean by "getting brown".

Doesn't matter, we can go to your gallery if we need to. It needs to be a profile shot and fairly close.
