No but a female molly can hold a reserve of sprem for six months. And continue giving birth months after not having contact with a male.

No, you need a male and a female molly, but female mollies are capable of storing sperm for later use, and even if she has only been in a tank with a male for 1 day she will be able to have several batches of fry.
Oh and by the way, hermaphrodites can not reproduce asexually, these are totally different terms.

No mollies cannot reproduce asexually it takes a male and a female.
Female Mollies can have up to 5 sets of fry from only one breeding.
If you had gotten females from the store and no males, chances were they were already prego when you brought them home.

Female mollies can store sperm from a male for up to six months, so they can appear to be giving birth without a male in the tank.
