I think Wiggles is egg impacted. Everyone else has spawned but she has spurned all advances from the male. Is there anything I can do for her/ I'm becomeing worried about her she is so round she can hardly swim.

There's not much you can do for Wiggles. Hopefully she'll spawn or reabsorb the eggs without problem.
Decaying eggs will cause a bacterial infection. Massage will cause the ovaries to rupture. Here's a photo of an anal port with the oviduct and part of the colon protruding due to improper stripping of eggs. Surgery is an option. |
