Also does she looked squared off?
 
I didn't put my platy in the net until after the first one was born. It's hard to tell when it will happen. If you see her hiding in a corner breathing hard you might want to keep an eye out for little guys. If you have a separate tank that is cycled you may want to go ahead and move her to that as it can stress her out to chase her with a net while she is birthing.
 
Thanks for the help but not all of my questions answered sorry. Can anyone else help me too?
 
does she looked like she is squaring off? Please help i really dont want all teh fry to get eaten. She looks a tiny bit squarer than this picture or bigger. What you guys think how long until she gives birth?
 
She looks pretty close, look carefully the next few days.

On a side note, in the picture isn't she already in a breeding trap? :blink:
 
She's very close to dropping, this can be seen by her very squared off stomach.
 
In the picture you show,she's already in a breeding trap.
How long as she been in there? Don't put your pregnant fish in the trap to early because they usually get pretty stressed in such a small space.
Anyway seing that she's already in the trap theres nothing more you can do except sit back and wait,any moment now she will be giving birth.
 
I only put them in the trap after they already start dropping because it stresses them out.
