Soon be fry?

Hey guys

I have this mollie that looks like she (If pregnant) is about to pop. Franna, how old are they, the biggest ones i got from you?

Shes started getting like this maybe 2 days after getting them. I now have here in a breeding net just in case. I will see if i can get a pic later tonight

Cheers

 

I think its a bit too early. Her older sister just started breeding. But you can leave her at first and put her in the breeder when you see a dark spot at the back of her belly. they give birth prematurely if stressed by a move.

 

Will check if there is any spot. If not will remove her from the breeder.

Maybe its just a fat male. I cant tell the diff

 

males will start showing big top fins. you will see. if she is pregnant she will become 10 times fatter then she is now. they blow up like balloons.

 

Well its not that big but its big. So far not one has died. And those little ones i also had are starting to show their colour. Unfortunately they will be relocatingto a diff tank soon as my 100l is getting crowded and need to get some out

 

here are my only 2 left. they are the bigger brother and sister of yours. . first pic is where he is impregnating her (she is already). and the second pic is just to show her big belly. and she's been pregnant for a while now. remember they are live breeders not egg layers .

 

Okay will look at mine when home

 

Fryyyyyy!!!!! Everywhere!!!!!

 

Congrats! I take these are your first? Hope you have food.

 

Yip they are. I was a bit late though. Just saw them in the tank. Some must have been eaten or something because i only got 5. Dont no who the mother is....

 

Congrats Troyfish best of luck

 

The first time my Endlers had fry I only got 2

 

the question is: guppie or mollie. I think its that fat female i thought was pregnant

 

Through some floating fern/ guppy grass in your tank that will give the babies some place to hide .

 

I removed them the fry from the tank and going to put them in the net. Or should i just leave them in my tank? Just remember i have alot of guppie and mollies

 

Put them in the net it would be better we are talking about the net breeding cage that hangs off the side of the tank.
Feed them baby powder food they will love it ad grow quickly on it

 

If the fish is not fat anymore it gave birth man.....throw a thinly sliced piece of cucumber into the tank.the fry will eat it.after a few days itl all be gone,do a water change after this.

 

If you cant get some powder now, crush some flakes into powder and feed it to them.

 

Okay yeah will do. Give me some time before replying to see if there might be more

 

Get a beer and a chair and watch carefully.
