Ok,
What happened after I took a consencus of advice was that I planned to move Lady to a larger tank, over the course of this move, she tried to lay eggs on the full moon. She was still heavy with eggs when I found her, with a pink protrusion that looks altogether different than the way her parts looked before when she was breeding last time. Help? She appears to want to eat and is stil very much fighting, but she does swim upside down sometimes...she passed some curly waste yesterday which I found a good sign, and I have given her Aloe Vera solution to help the stool, as well as throwing in Aquari Sol and Fungus Eliminator (Which works on Dropsy), But it is this pink protrusion that looks like a large anus which I am most worried about...has anyone seen this ...is it a symptom of being "Egg Bound" and is it still possible to treat her? ANY EMERGENCY SUGGESTIONS? Thanks so much, your adoring fan J p.s. She is still heavy with eggs. Is there a way I can "massage" them out of her? HELP!!!
