i have 4 leopard danios in a 10 gallon i have had them for about a month i got them off a friend just recently about 3 days ago 1 of them got fat and plumpand itsd chasing the others round and their chasing iti does'nt look anything like dropsy and its acting fine and eating fine any ideas or do i just have a fat danio :/
 
Danios are constantly chasing each other, that's just part of their behavior. However, as for the sudden set on of "fat", I would wonder if you have a girl full of eggs. Keep an eye on her and if in a few days she's back to her normal slim self, she probably spawned. :rolleyes:
 
yes its probably a she and yes they get more aggressive (just chase more) when their pregnant might I suggest getting a couple more danios because they should be kept in a shoal of minimum 6 ;)
 
oh god :) i got a fat giant danio the woman and the shop said she might be pregnant how long does it take for them to drop and hatch coz i got a smallish tank with convicts and no other tanks and iam getting a bigger one in 10 days will i be safe? :(
