are you talking live bearer preggo, or egg layer gravid?
Live beareres will usually grow round in the abdonminal region, and/or there will be a large dark spot near the vent..Small live bearers will have a dark spot if they are female, but its usually waste, because that spot is clear on females, you are realy taking a look inside them;)
Egg layors can become round, some put on special color, some act different, some of them you can actualy see the eggs, but other than that, its difficult to know for sure.

all fishes have different characterisitics and different ways of breeding.
