Is My Minnow Pregnant?

[katykaye]

Hiya

I have 6 silver minnow, and very sweet they are too! But one of them is looking decidedly fat!! I have uploaded some pics to see if anyone can confirm or let me know if something else is wrong - the fish is perfectly happy and healthy in every other way (I have no idea how to sex them)

Many thanks

It's a little button above where you type the message. It looks like a little painting.

Is the minnow looking fat on the underside near the back of the minnow?

Can you sorta see what color the minnow is where she is getting fatter? Is it a sort of yellow/orange color?

their white cloud mountain minnow's and yes thats a female and ready to breed.

Their quite easy to do to be honest, but the like loads of plants to spawn in.

Yep, although she isn't pregnant, she's just filled with eggs.
