a little better but what i need is a clear, up close photo.
a gravid spot is a dark spot infront of the anal fin in femals live bearers. the alan fin is the fin closest to the tail fin in the underside of the fish. in female live bearers, the fin is reletivly short and rounded and in males, it is long and thin. it is called a gonopodium in males. it is how males fertalize the eggs inside of the female fish.

Well i have two males and two females wat do you think ? and how long do you think it will take for her to become pregnant ? and would it be an idea to put a male and female in a seperate breeding net will this speed it up ? or should they just be left to swim around together ?

Its hard to say how long it would take for her to become pregnant...it just depends on what happens between them. Livebearers usually breed like rabbits, so it probably won't be long.
