I'm basing my knowledge on guppies and platties so I could be offbut the early bloomers are about 2-3 months old, normal about 4 months, late bloomersuh anything goes...mainly depends on the fish itself...keep an eye out they should be showing their true identities soon heidi

I believe most female livebearers are capable of getting pregnant around 6 weeks of age, males take a little longer to develop, from 2 months all the way to around 6 months before they mature.
