Okay so one of my cherry barbs has a fairly rounded belly. Does this mean she is about to lay eggs (i am fairly certain it's a she), or is it normal that they look like that? She has been hanging around the Hornwort a lot and seems to just be very relaxed.. not swimming around like crazy.

Thanks a lot!!

It sounds like she has eggs, but I'm not 100% sure. Do you have a pic of her that you could post?

How long does it take until cherry barbs are sexually mature?
I have a pair, and I can't wait for them to breed

Well, she has the right coloring to think she has eggs, but I'd be surprised that she hasn't laid them yet.

I am about to check in a sec back, but that's exactly what i'm thinking =/

Dark_Rider2k3

still no eggs.

Anyone have any ideas? =/

Not sure, maybe this is just her normal state?

maybe =/

It's not a big matter.. my Mollies are surely going to give me fry, and man when they do I have a feeling I'll have a lot lol
