You can tell them apart by the gonopodium, a tube-like structure at the front of the anal fin. It is only present in the male of livebearers. Common livebearers include mollies, platys, swordtails, and guppies. the females have a fan like fin

Today I bought a black molly and have noticed it is very rounded in the belly and am wondering if it could be pregnant However Im not sure of the sex any advice?

It is most unusual for any kind of female adult livebearer to be not pregnant. The ventral fin in a female livebearer is triangular in a male it is finger shaped.


You have raised a guppy that as it grew was a female then it got the male part on it its length and finanage of a female but has the male part on doesnt breed like a male fully grown witch is it?

If the fish has a triangular anal fin it is a female. If the anal fin is elongated and has a long point it is a "gonopodium" and the fish is a male. That is the ONLY WAY to sex a livebearer.
