Pregnant True Percula?

[Colts_U]

I have 2 true percula clownfish; one of which is about half an inch larger than the other. The larger one has a bulge below its 2 fins by its stomach. The inside looks slightly blackish in color. The large one has been "EXTREMELY" agressive to the smaller one since ive noticed the bulge lately. Also, both the large and small fish do this wierd vibrating motion sometimes when next to eachother (especially the big one). They will just look at eachother and start either twitching really fast or vibrating a bunch next to eachother when they are not fighting.

If anyone can help me out and let me know what to do, it would be great! thanks!

Well, if she is developing a clutch, the bulge won't last long. Clowns usually lay eggs on ~1 week periods. So they'll lay eggs, which will hatch a week later. A week after that, another clutch is laid, doesn't take long. Also, USUALLY the Male (smaller one) and sometimes the female will begin cleaning the rocks around where they're hosting to prep for laying the eggs. Either way your best bet is to proceed as normal, wait, and see what happens

I understand what your saying, its just that the big one is SO violent toward the smaller one right now, I just really dont know if he will survive. Before they were NOT aggressive, they would swim together in the tank and sleep right next to one another, but once I noticed the bulge she got REAL agrressive and I dont know if the male will fertilize them due to how much he gets tormented, let alone clean the rock!
