Large white cloud minnow

[Jahvfish]

This female white cloud is significantly larger than all of my other ones. I’m a bit concerned about her, because this doesn’t look normal to me. Is she okay?

No not really, how many white clouds do you have

 

[Big Boy Fish]

Do you have males in the tank. She could be pregnant

She is absolutely full of eggs. Unhealthily so. I would go online (stay online?) and look up how to breed the fish. It's very easy. Even if you don't raise the fry, you could help her with that egg problem.

It looks like there is more than eggs in her.
How long did she take to get fat like that?

 

[Jahvfish]

I have 13

I do have males as well. I started with 6 white clouds and ended up with 13 so far lol

she’s been like this quite a while now. Not sure exactly, but months…

I have bred them. I started out with 6 and now have 13 in total.

They have a tendency to 'egg binding', where they fill with eggs and struggle with that. I'd try putting her in a breeding set up, just to ease the discomfort.
