My female dottyback just died

[Keri]

Aww, sorry to hear that Marie.

I've never heard of egg binding in fish, as the eggs they produce lack a hard shell but I suppose anything is possibe....it's also possible she was quite old, unless she was captive bred? Was the pot belly recent, or was it common when she was laying eggs?

Having seen your system it certainly isn't lack of good husbandry!!
