Due to having to move my goldfish into the tank my male betta was living in, I had to stick a divider in a 10 gallon tank and he is now living in there with a female betta on the other side. Ever since he has moved there, my female has become eggy. What do I do? She won't drop the eggs. Should I let them breed and hope she eats the eggs? HELP!

I see... She looks more bloated than gravid. I've never had a girl swell up like that prior to spawning. Some Epsom salt baths might help and good parameters. Make sure you are soaking dried food before feeding for now, and/or feeding frozen food so she can easily digest it and it isn't swelling in her tummy. What are the parameters?
