Sunburst Platy Pregnant?

[mykalderyck]

Hi I'm fairly new at the whole tank hobby. I have a 29 gallon tank and I have three platys in there.I have two females and a male according to the dorsal fin or anal fin. I noticed the female is swimming up and down in the corner of the tank. She looks fatter than fat. She has what looks like waste coming out of her except its clear and its thin and at the end if it is a little tiny round ball. Does anyone know what that might be? At first I was wondering if she might be sick. Im going to purchase a water testing kit as well as have my water tested in the morning. If anyone has any advice it would be helpful. Thanks

As long as her scales aren't sticking out, it sounds like she's about to have babies. That sounds like what my platys did when they were and I also noticed the thin clearish poo. The ball is usually a baby, you will see it open and start swimming. Some of them don't make it and stay balled up. Hope this helps
