Read the posted thread first

Ah a double thread......... Not likely gravid. Don`t see any water parameters in either thread- nor how long the fish has been in your care. Nevertheless- It could be bacterial, could be something nondigestable ingested,or any myrid of things. Generally clowns will be obvious in their intent to breed before the female swells- and often times the swelling is slight- although I have seen maroons get pretty rotund. If she is still swollen up- and has trouble swimming or bouancy problems- its likely a problem. I would move her to the QT tank.
