my molly fish just had babies this morning, but i'm not sure if they're actual babies?

i have her in a seperate container so that the babies once born go to the bottom and she can't eat them. but they don't look like babies, they just look like little orange-ish balls. are they not fertilized? :( or is this just like the first stage?

Mollies give birth to live fry. It may be the your fish expelled unfertilized eggs.

these are eggs which didn't grow out to be babies
your molly might be aborting because of stress

Hope that helps
Good luck
