SHES had 4 fry already and still looks very much pregnant how long does the whole birthing process take?She looks quite plump, so she probably hasn't got long to go. What you want to watch out for is her 'squaring off'; her belly will develop distinct 'corners', especially at the front.
Once that happens, she should give birth within the next 24 hours or so, if she feels happy and not stressed. We do not recommend the use of any breeding boxes or nets; they are too small for the mother fish to feel at home, and too small for the fry to grow properly. She will be best left in the main tank
