I think one of my CBS is pregnant, her belly is hanging way down and purple. Is there anything I should do.? Ive have the pair of CBS for about 3 months now.
 
The eggs change color some as they mature, that may account for the difference in colors. There isn't much you can do for the babies, but they are a great food source for corals and others critters. Cleaner shrimp release their fry shortly after lights out- it's pretty cool to watch, not sure about CBS though. HTH
 
Its pretty cool the way the two work together, the female (mom) hangs out in a little cave and the male comes out and grabs some food and brings it back to the cave and they stay there all day...:) They both come out at night and cruise the tank always side by side...:)
