?Does my snowflake clown look pregnant?

[bluegreg1997]

I've had these guys for about 2 months now. They where juveniles when I got them from a tank that they where in together for about 2 months also, so maybe they're 6-8 months old but not too sure.

Did you just feed? I have no idea but I think they lay eggs and dont get pregnant.

Yes they do lay eggs but I wonder if they get all fat bellied like that? I did feed about 2 hrs ago but just noticed fat belly recently. They're both close to the same size but now the one has a fat belly and other doesn't.

Is it swimming funny? My clown had the same problem and I was told to feed it food with lots of fiber(nori). It was fine but the problem came up once in a while.

Looks like it ate too much....happens to my clowns too
FYI, your clowns are too young to lay eggs as they typically reach maturity at around 2yrs old.
Should see the belly go back to normal today....

I think you should put the fish in my tank for a year or so and ill get to the bottom of this fat belly situation.

glad to hear it was just over eating :thumbsup:

FWIW, I suggest you consider getting some type of foam cover on your PH with regards to your BTA.....
