Question
How do you tell when the fish is finished giving birth? She has had 20 babies in two hours.

Answer
Myrt,

It could take up to 4 days for her to finish. If you have 20 fry, then chances are she is already finished. Just keep an eye on her. If she is back to pre pregnant size, then she is probably done. Just make sure you feed her good and keep her separated from the other fish for 24 hours before adding her back to the main tank.
