I have had fish for 3 years, i wanted to try breeding and i bought the most pregnant molly i could find and also another fish that the lady at wallmart said was pregnant, i know that sometimes the people don't know anything there about fish, but they did look pregnant. and they haven't let their babies go yet, they are both in a breeding net and my pleco keeps sucking on it, but the others are nice.
 
Sounds like everything's okay... I'm not sure why you think you've done something wrong.
Livebearers can hold onto their fry for a while if they don't feel safe giving birth - if they were just moved into a new tank, they're probably not going to have the fry for a bit (and when they do it's most often during the night, like many animals).
Just keep taking good care of them, and they'll settle in and have their babies when they're ready - you can't rush mother nature! :D
 
thanks, and another question

both of the fish are in one breeding net with alot of plants do you think i should seperate them?
