MY Balloon Molly just had babies but.....

[kittyh1981]

I have three female balloon mollies and one male balloon molly. My daughter just spotted two baby fish in the tank there both orange looking. My problem is I dont know which Molly just gave birth! None of them really looked pregnant. My three females are Pure orange,Orange w/ white strips and pure black. Also I was wondering why there was only two?? i thought they had like 15.. Is she still giving birth or did they eat the other babies?? Can anyone help with these Qs?

Same EXACT thing happened to me, except in my case I knew which molly had given birth.

I still don't know whether my fish had only two fry (they were exceptionally big) or whether the rest got eaten. Maybe you've caught the tail end of the whole episode.

Anway, 4 weeks later my 2 fry are still doing great! Hope yours do well, too. Orange Cute.
