Normally when you see that they are on the verge of having babies you would put them in a separate tank and then take the mum out as soon as she has the babies.

How do you know when your pregnant fish is about to give birth?

they swim in the tank low to the bottom away from the other fish. If you look close their breathing pattern is different than the rest of the fish. The female will want to be alone and most of the time all the other fish can sense that shes ready to deliver and they hang around to try and eat the babies. try to separate her. once she has them put her in a separate tank away from the babies because she will eat them too. this might be gross but usually her rear door will be contracting too.
