best thing i found out that is less headach and cheaper. is just put alot of plants in your tank and let nature take corse. ive had more babies live that way with both mollies and guppies
@HitdeHippie I have these and so do all of the other fish breeders I know. You shouldn't say something if you don't know if its true. There are many ways to house a female fish. They only go in this for maybe 2-3 days and once they are done having babies/you are satified with the # of babies, you let her out into the normal tank. She might continue having babies in the tank but hey, fry are probably the most healthy food for adult fish.
@worldofmp3 I'M GOING THROUGH THE SAME THING NOW... I STARTED MY AQUARIUM 2 MONTHS AGO AND NOW I HAVE 2 PREGNANT MOLLY FISH AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO...PLEASE HELP ME !!!WHAT DID YOU DO? DID THEY SURVIVE?
put them in a seperated birthtank (as you can see in this video). everything should work out fine. I was going to my work that day, and when I returned, the babies were born! I had no fish that liked to eat little mollies, so 18 of them (total of 2 times pregnant) survived.
the other fish who are not in the hatchery net are like omg food give me your babys for lunch! yum yum yum yum fishy baken! but lucky for me i am a vegetarion and so on :)
well, i bought 1 male red male guppy and 2 female guppys one has got black/white body whit yellow dots on long fins, and the other one is black/purple both are fat.
can i put a fish in that box when i know that its pregnant? or when should i put it in the box and do they need a special temperature? cold, warm or decent plz reply
You should but the fish in the box after 3 or 4 weeks of her pregnant. This is a variable time depending on the type of the fish you can search for how long every kind of fish last in pregnancy.
And the best conditions to let the fish delivers is to adjust the temp of the water to 27 degrees if you are going with tropical fish. Also adding fresh water.
Flygirl, you can buy that birthing tank at any well stocked pet store selling fish supplies... got mine at PetSmart. It cost about 7 bucks US. Floats in the main tank and isolates the fry until they are large enough to survive in main population tank (normally 1-2 weeks
when do you know to put them in the tank ?

My Molly-Fish is also pregnant.
She is pregnant for about 3-4 weeks now, and is (for a molly-fish) VERY huge!
Think she is going to get babies this week.
It`s all new to me, just started a tropical aquarium like 2-3 months ago...
Wonder if some babies are gonna survive...
Thanks for sharing this video, it`s kinda "educative" ;-)

@worldofmp3 most welcome,
my advice is to get a birthing tank, also changing adding a fresh water to the tank will help the fish to deliver.
also make sure of the water temperature.
:D
update me when the fish delvers the babies also add a video of them :D
