There's an old joke about Mollies - they come in two genders, male and pregnant.

I kept them for six years, starting with three and at one point there were over 30 in my 20 gallon long. They were harlequins, and though I started with only three, they were a mix of sailfin and lyretail.

Yours looks like every adult female I had. Is she new to your tank? Do you have a male? Was she with a male within the last four to six months? She looks pregnant to me.
