My School Of White Clouds!

[fshinggrl]

I'm thinking I have at least mostly females.. one or two look like they may be males. Anyone?
They are getting along with my new Betta.

I was told that the females look fatter.

yeah females are alot fatter, the males tend to stay younger looking as well. They are always preggers if there is a male in the tank.

I thought they were egg layers... am I missing something? Do they only have eggs if there are males in the tank?
