Platy Momma having her babies NOW!!!

[HutchesonJ]

Omg I'm so excited but don't fully know what to do right now my platy has been having babies almost all day I have cought 7 and put them in the breeder net... The mom is in a tank with 1 other pregnant platy 2 corydoras and 1 pleco... How do I properly save the babies???

The silver one is having her babies now...
And going and getting another tank isn't possible right now...

Keep catching any fry you find and putting them in the breeder net. BTW Don't ever add pregnant fish to the breeder net as it is far too stressful on them.
Live plants provide useful hiding places for fry, floating plants in particular. Add some to the tank and a few to the breeder net.
Platy fry are big enough to eat crushed flaked fish food, add a tiny portion 3-5 Times a day.

Yeah that's what I did so far I cought 9 but while I was trying to catch them I feel like I was stressing the mom out way to bad so I got worried the yellow one that I think is still pregnant is the only other fish in there right now and she keeps eating them and staying under her I don't know what to do about her I don't want I stress her and move her and my other tank only has 2 male platys and a male molly they would not leave her alone if I tried putting her over there... I don't know how many babies she had but I'm not seeing anymore as of now but they hide in the gravel very good.

How do I know when she is done having them? And how do you know if a balloon molly is pregnant?
