If there is a male molly in your tank or there were males when she was purchased from the LFS, it’s probably preggo. I just put floating plants/refuge for the fry and let nature do its course. You’ll get surprised all the time with new fry once a group of those gets established

Yes there is other males in the aquarium but I’ll put some more hiding places just in case it is pregnant

is there anything else i should do or just let her be
you may get some cannibalism, but if you provide enough shelter, a good portion should survive. Pretty soon you’ll have more mollies than space in your tank. Add a good chunk of java moss and other surface spots. Other option is removing fry and raising in separate tank/divider.
