I have 2 mollies in my 37 gallon tank and I have one molly that it getting big while the other one is normal weight. I tried fasting for a day to see if it was just a bloat but it didn't disappear. There is no outward scales from the top view. The molly does seem more skittish and idk.


There are only 2 due to a disease that wiped out the rest from months ago (is not a factor now).

If she’s almost ready she’ll be wanting somewhere to hide, like some dense plants, for the safety of her and the fry. That might be why she’s getting anxious.
 
she looks pregnant to me, if she were bloated, do you notice any weird swimming such as her belly turning over and her turning vertical?
 
Her belly is fine now but I dont see sings of any fry.

Sometimes they only have a few if it's their first couple of batches, and fry will hide either among plants at the surface, or among decor at the substrate. Have a good look! If no signs, then a few more pics of the female?
