well clowns lay eggs, so I'm sure it's not pregnant, but it could be ready to breed. I've never seen a clown prior to laying its eggs, so I don't know if they would look like that. I dont think so, though. Particularly based on my perceived size, I don't think it's mature enough.

hmm...could it be a disease that their bellies bulge out like that?

I'de try the disease forum to make sure, but my clown doesn't look like that before she lays eggs. I have maroons though, so that could make a difference.
