I'm sorry i cant post a picture but, my koi swordtail (female) has been getting larger about every 3 or so days. My koi is kept with 2 black mollies 1 male and 1 female. I was wondering if was possibly that the koi and the molly might have mated? Is it possible?

I was thinking it might be because i heard a story about a ballon molly and a guppy mating, and getting ballon guppies.

Both my koi and my mollies are live-bearers so is it possible?
My molly and koi ar the same size.
 
it could be possible but try as mush as you can to post a picture so i can see it and maybe it could not happen because there to seperate kinds of fish
 
It s possible because guppies and platies can mate together. But live bearers can hold sperm in 5 to 6 pockets in her and that's probably why. And does she have a gravid spot in front of her anal fin because those are the fries eyes. Good luck!
 
no your swordtail did not mate with molly...lol..

swordtails like most live breeders can store sperm for some time...molly can keep it for years...most likely it mated a long time ago and is now comfortable to have her baby's....so have fun raising the fry...
