I have a pair of ocular albino golden sailfin Mollies that have produced beautiful offspring. Usually the male is constantly badgering the female for romance. The female is pregnant again and the male was annoying her all day long. So I placed the female in another tank with 10 Glowlight tetras. That was three weeks ago. She still hasn’t given birth. I guess I overestimated her gestation period. Today she was climbing the glass and looked stressed. So I placed the male in her tank. The reunion was amazing. They were kissing and being gentle with each other. I was concerned that the male would begin to hound the female for mating. But the opposite has occurred. The female is chasing the male all around the tank. This has been happening for around thirty minutes. This has never happened before with the pair. Any thoughts?
