|  Sexing Fry (Miss Fishy?) You put 2 adult Livebearers in front of me? I got it. That's a Male, that's a Female. When can I sex the fry? I obviously want to separate the Males and Females before they get sexually mature, but I'm looking at 8 week old Mollies, and I can't tell who's who. Is there an age at when I should be able to tell before they reach maturity?

| yeah- and it is a few weeks away lol. I know for my guppies at about one month of age or so the males generally begin to form their gonopodiums (sp?). Before then it is impossible.
