Pregnant?

I’m new to ember tetras.
Unsure if I have a sick fish or a pregnant female?
If pregnant, will she lay eggs anywhere?

oh and also...if it does lay eggs, how long until they hatch?
if they do...if they don't, will the shrimp eat them?

It doesn't say how long eggs take to hatch, though.

I had actually read that, and snooped around on line quite a bit but couldn't tell if mine was just a chubby girl or pregnant.
Everywhere says females are more "round bodied" which she certainly is, but seems a little extreme.
