Is My Glofish Pregnant

Okay first of all don't get onto me, I know they lay eggs! Second I have had her for about 2 weeks, and her stomach looks like it is getting big and round. She also hasn't played around as much today. And recently she has been eating (a lot), and her poop is much darker.

Please help me

I need to know, please.

 

Can we see a picture of her?

 

Yes, pic would help

Ahh sorry, I misread glofish to be goldfish. I can't help with glofish, know nothin about em! Good luck!

 

Okay I can send a pic soon

I have a pink one that looks just like that. She's been the same since I got her, perhaps 3.5 months ago.

No eggs to be seen... nothing.

Sometimes when I fast them (every Sunday, sometimes an extra day if there's poop/bloating problems)... her middle gets a tad smaller but right back to normal shortly after

 

So it’s not egg hosting and it’s normal?

And what does a bloated stomach look like?

I've been waiting to see changes or eggs! Babies would make me happy.

I just figure I have a big girl lol.

I hope someone with experience can chime in and inform about their eggs and such.

 

Me too

 

In my experience with livebearers, she is pregnant. But she is not a livebearer, so I can not be 100% sure. Maybe try fasting the tank for 1 or 2 days and see if it goes away?

 

She appears to be heavy, or egg laden. If she had a boyfriend or two, she would probably be skinny within a few days. But it does not look like bloat at this point.

 

Okay I can send a pic soon

Any news?

 

Well I don't think she is or isn't, I'm leaning towards is, her stomach is getting bigger and bigger, and she's eating a lot! Here's some pics.

Do is she?

Can an expert tell me if she is or not? She keeps trying to eat stuff in the gravel though.

 

She was and now I have baby fry!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Yay! Just remember, I am pretty sure glofish are illegal to sell unless you get a permit from the glofish company. So, you might want to give them away or get a permit just so you don’t get fined.

Oh wow congratulations. So she did put eggs somewhere and has a boyfriend.

How many fries?

I wish mine would have babies!

Were you able to see the eggs? I guess the others weren't interesting in eating them?

 

Congrats!
Yes glofish are illegal to sell but not all the babies will be glofish some will be their natural color. They are not illegal to breed and keep tho
Show us the babes!

Oh wow. Do they show color right away?

 

Fries come with a hamburger and a Coke at McDonald's. Fish have FRY, used as both singular and plural.

Not sure, I was going to try and breed them once but I decided not to. I think it will be easy to tell within a week or two maybe.
