Looks to me like she’s holding eggs, you could take her out and gently rub her chin and she will spit eggs out, if she only spits a few out, she’s not ready, if she spits lots out then that’s fine. You then need to put eggs in a separate tank and can use an egg tumbler if you want or just an air stone near them

It's hard to be exact, but I would say she'll release in a few days.

She looks like she has a mouthful. Leave her alone to incubate them. Don't chase her around or do anything, just let her be a normal mum. She will hold the eggs and babies for about 2 weeks (depending on temperature) before letting the babies out to swim around.

In tanks where electric yellow were the only fish, I had lots of fry grow to adulthood. But if it's shared space, then competition kicks in.
