mollies

[newbie hob]

I have 3 male mollies (one black, one dalmation and one orange sail fin) all three are competing for just one yellow dust mollie and they just wont leave her alone, although they have 6 others to chase ( but they dont even show any interest in the others unless they mistaken her with another darker yellow dust mollie but they realize thats not the one .
Is there any specific reason for that?? any ideas of what to do?? im sure they will stress her hard, soon.

How many do you have in total and what are their genders? and what size tank are they in?

they are in a 45 galon tank (as in my signature), i have 6 female and three males,

It is probably cos the others are pregnant; unless you have a spare tank to move her to, i would just buy more plants/ornements to create more hiding places in the tank for her unless you want to cut down on 1 male or add another female(which may take their attention off her).
