One of my tiger barbs has gotten huge! Looks even bigger in person. Pregnant or not?

It really doesn't look that big in picture but in person it looks huge! Like its about to pop. I'll try to get a better picture
 
It wouldnt be considered pregnate, more like gravid. I believe they are egg scaterers
 
I dont think there is, but you have a good chance there is a male with 5
 
The tips on the fins of males are red females are clearer. at least thats how it was explained to me.
