nufishgirl Small Fry Posts: 1 Votes: 0 Registered: 23-Aug-2004	I just bought a gold Molly or sword - female - no markings but her body and tail look like a sword. She's pregnant. She is fat and I can see the triangle on her side. How long does it take to have baby's? I have put her in a breeder because I don't want to loose the babies. I have a 75 gal tank with about 32 fish. I do have plants but I don't want to chance it. Help - on suggestions - thanks

Get a 10gal. tank & leave her there, you can plant it & also leave some floating plants, so the fry will have somewhere to hide. After birth, remove the mother & you can raise the fry safely. http://www.flickr.com/photos/corydoras/ Member of the Malta Aquarist Society - 1970. http://www.maltaaquarist.com
