Usually 21-28 days. They usually give birth in the morning, so be sure to check for little fry then.

The gestation period for livebearers is 28 days
And also keep in mind that they can store sperm for up to 6 months, so you're able to have up to 6 batches from one female without a male with her

Hope that helps
Good luck
