Hi I recently uploaded another forum here asking if my platies (and 1 molly) were pregnant. I was told they were pregnant so I was wondering how long until each one gives birth. I’ve always had trouble with what squared off looks like so a rough estimate would help for my molly and 3 platy. Thanks

The bottom 2 platies look very soon.
You said in your other thread that the mollie has always been fat, correct? If she is a balloon mollie it is hard to tell when (for me at least)

Yeah my molly has looked similar to this maybe a little smaller but I’ve noticed it has little white dots on its stomach (I don’t know if this could possibly be fry eyes or anything) but it’s pretty much always looked like this. Thanks

The lyretail molly looks close just like wagtail in the second pic. But platies can even become fatter before they'll drop any fry.

Do you know about how long the molly is?
And this forum is actually a few days old one of my platies actually did end up giving birth to 11 fry. About 3 days ago

She does look already squared off. I guess, within a week...
