Is My Cichlid Pregnant(mouth Brooding)

[pbase5583]

I have no idea he's about three inches yellow lab so I separated it to a ten gallon just in case, could someone please help
He doesn't want to eat but I think three inches is too smal for the.m to have babies but anything is possible

3" is large enough, she's holding. It's the females that hold, not the males.
