:crazy: HELP i have problem...
i went and bought 5 neons recently and i think one is pregnant.
it its about 2ice as fat as all the others, i know tetra are'nt livebearers.
i have a breeder net but it is accupied by molly babies, and the tetra treis to eat them.. so i cant put them together, the net i have isnt dividable.
i thinks the eggs WOULD be allright in the main tank, but i have a corydora and i have been informed that they eat eggs on sight.
ADVICE PLZ!!
thanks spectrum

Egg Layers are full of eggs, not pregnant (not trying to sound rude, but some people will not respond to posts where things like that are mislabeled, just like the difference between shoaling and schooling)

Yes, corydoras and eggs generally dont mix. Basically you can have one but not the other.


The fish could be a large female, which if it does spawn, then most likely the cory will eat all of the eggs. If the fish is just bloated, try lighter feeding at least for a few days, and it will work its way out. The fish is not abnormally large is it, like when a fish has dropsy? No problems with balance, swimming, behavior, breathing, etc?
