Keep it wet. Feed it well. Wait 30 days. Look for fry.

The rest you can find by reading through the 1000's of posts in this forum.

Molly fry seem to be great survivers .... 5 or 6 plastic or live plants will make chances of live fry very good ... They will need their own tank ... Alot of things as far as birthing and things you will have too decide on your own

Mollies aren't known to eat the fry, but alot times the first time mom does. So bottom plants and top plants are good. The fry will swim to the bottom first day then to the top for the next week. They are atrackted to the light and are top swimming fish. I don't know what else is in your tank, but if they don't get ate or go threw a temp swing 95% sould grow till adulthood.
