I have one female guppy that looked like she was ready to drop her young so I put her into a maternity tank. That was over seven weeks ago and she has not had any young and just keeps getting bigger and bigger. She looks like a blimp with eyes on the top. I have heard of egglayers getting eggbound, do live bearers have the same sort of problem. Is there anything I can do to help her before she explodes? keetah 2010-05-26
