Pregnant Clownfish?

Hi everyone, I recently was watching my clownfish pair swimming crazy. They have been cleaning the corner of the tank voraciously on the glass. The female keeps flipping over and like barrel rolling as she mouths the glass. The male is very close to her and is picking at the glass too while he rolls on his side. Is my clownfish pregnant or what? Her girth is pretty big, and it looks as if there is a little tube sticking out of her underneath her middle stripe. What should I do if she is? Thanks. :hmm2:
 
Her ovipositor is out, that's a good sign.

What are your intentions if she lays eggs? Are you going to try and raise them or not bother? If you have no intentions of trying to raise baby clowns then you can just leave the eggs in the tank and let all the tank mates have a tasty snack.

If you want to give it a go on raising them, go to www.mbisite.org or even the breeding forums here for information.
