You will know, she will get REALLY REALLY big, I believe it's about a week? Also if there are any other fish in the tank, they may eat some of the babies. Once she starts getting really big, I would put her in a separate birthing tank if you want the (10-50) babies to live.

Mollies take about a month to have their babies. You should separate them from the other fish when you can see they are pregnant.

Mollies usually have a gestation period between sixty to sixty five days, or roughly nine weeks. The fish will undertake many physical signs to indicate how close to birthing the fish is.

Mollies carry their young for about 4 weeks. By the time you see their gravid spot they are close to giving birth.

I am not sure exactly who your molly is so there is really no way for me to tell you when she will have her babies.

ass the "miracle of birth" implies only when conditions are optimal. ph, temperature, overall health, and a nest area being some the biggest concerns. Moat breeds prefer to lay eggs on a flat rock at a slight angle

If the tank is kept in good condition, her gestation period will be approximately one month long. She may have between two to sixty fry in one birthing...try to make sure she doesn't eat them and try to raise the babies in a separate tank as soon as possible after birth if possible.
