I have a lyretail molly that looks like she is pregnant. If she is can anyone estimate how long she will have left??

And what’s the best set up for a fry tank??
Thank you!

She looks close, maybe 4-7 days. Don't put her in a breeders box as that can stress her out.

The best set up is her tank with lots of plants and no males.

Shes gorgeous! Very nice fins on that girl!

Add floating plants like hornwort. Then scoop any fry you see out into either a tank filled with water from the main tank, or put the fry into the breeding box, but dont put her in it otherwise she may actually abort.
