    Cherry Barbs

    Not sure if some of my cherry barbs are pregnant. I have noticed that they seem to be getting big bellys and never having had any pregnant fish before I haven't a clue how long it will be before they give birth and what to feed them. Will they feed on micro pellets ? Any tips or suggestions please
