The gestation period for this fish is usually 28 days but sometimes can take some more time. Like all livebearers when the female is in pregnant it will develop a dark triangular shaped gravid spot near her anal vent. As the pregnancy progresses this dark triangular shaped gravid spot will get larger and darker.
== == They have the ability to retain the sperm from a previous mating for up to 4 months.
no there ARE STIll only babies
The female Dalmatian molly differs from the male in that her ventral fin is triangular, his is pointed.
Any molly can be made gravid (pregnant) from around 3 months old if they are well reared.
The Male molly chases the Female and it sticks its pointy anal fin in the hole. Then after 4 weeks the Female Molly has babies
Yes, a female cat is called a Molly. If she is pregnant or nursing a litter, she is called a queen.
Intrusion..!
female mollies chase male mollies so they can mate or have babies.!!
