balloon molly question

Question
Hi there how can you tell when the male and female balloon mollies are mating so we know to expect babies weeks later, thanks.

Answer
They will usually, in private, take it in turns to go on top of each other basically while mating. It is usually, as I said, done in private, so you may not notice. Remember, Mollies are livebearers, so she shall not lay eggs, but give birth to live young. The mother will eat her babies too if you do not separate them into a different tank or a breeding net.
Best of luck,
Kathryn
