i have 6 zebra danios and 1 of them has a huge belly. and she is fighting off the other danios away from her. can it be that she may be pregnant
 
Does your danio look like this? This one is prego.

Im sorry, but I have no idea about that part either. Any babies I have ever had from any fishies have become snackies for others. :eek: If you want any babies to survive, hopefully someone else will come along with more info for ya.
 
I have one female and some very fancy tailed danios - the little female regularly lays eggs in the tank (approx every 6/8 weeks it seems).

As soon as she's finished all the mates in the tank gobble up this free food supply. I have never yet seen any young.

ps - I've had the pleasure of these manic swimmers now for nearly 2 years and there is no sign of her slowing down on the old spawning front - at least it keeps the males happy!
