my guess is they begin, to slow eat, and kinda have there tails pointed up, but it is a very little change. and stay where they feel safest, being if there are plants.

Signs when my molly is ready to drop in about 3-4 days:

1. boxy shape of her belly
2. less active
3. always hide at the planted area (bottom or top)
4. more clamping of her anal fin
5. goes up and down in the corner of the tank

6. optional, if her belly is translucent, the gravid spot
is getting darker and darker.
