i just recently bought mollies and 2 sword tails. The female looks like sh is pregnant, you can see the black dots. All the fish i my tank are community fish. will the fry be okay? or does it have no chance of survival in th same tank?plezzzz help!
 
Yes Swordtail Mollies will and do eat their fry along and so will any other fish in the tank. It's like McDonald's to them. Don't be offended though cause mollies breed very often. Most times when you buy a Molly it is pregnant. Sorry, thi is nature's way.

Mollies can also change sexually orientation....kinda weird, huh? But you may think you bought 2 females and one day you may look in the tank and see fry. This is natural
