Yes, it has been a stressful last week, the mother seemed to be doing well but became very clamped up about a week ago.
I have spent the last week treating her like a princess trying to get her to dropping which she has now done, she is now really emaciated and clamped (I have never seen a fish which has every fin clamped up) and I am trying to get her better but I am pleased that I at least have a few fry.
