I have a marbled Molly female I've had since I started the hobby a few months back. I found a big marbled male for her and she gave birth a couple days ago. She's about 3 inches long maybe a bit less and she birthed close to or over 90 fry! There was a total of 30 that were dead but there is at least twice that many alive. I've never heard of such a large brood and I wondered if anyone knows if that's normal or if I got lucky?
On top of that there may have been more because she dropped a dead fry so we put her in a breeder net all night, woke up and the fry were in there so she could have eaten some.
