Cichlid help

[britsmith9211]

My large female ruby green Cichlid has pretty much secluded her self from the other 5 fish. She won't eat or even really move around. And u fed them today and she didn't come out to eat.

I thought maybe she could be carrying but I'm not sure.

This is her. She's been in this corner for almost 2 days. I haven't seen her move much

What else is in the tank?

Fish wise? Just the 6 cichlids

Yeah just them

Hopefully she's holding, but it could be malawi bloat. (Fish don't have to be from malawi to get malawi, parasitic, bloat)

Have you fed any live foods, or high protein/high fiber foods?

It could also just be constipated.

I found out she was holding. I got her out and gently checked her mouth. She has a decent amount of eggs

Awesome, glad to hear it.
