[cameraman954]

So here is the story. I've had a female clown for about 4 months and a male clown for about 3. And they have been together for 3 months. I went away this weekened for a camping trip and when I came back I noticed the females stomach was sticking out and I see her stomach is a light shade of black. Is she pregnant? Please help

Pregnant, no. Gravid, could be. The eggs are fertilized on th eoutside, so all she would be carrying is eggs.

So what happens now? Do I do anything?

no you dont do anything,,, if she lays them you will notice her and the male hanging out at the same place all the time...they look like little orange dots, lol tiny...if they get fertilized they may evenutally hatch giving the other fish in your tank a tasty treat....if you want to try to rear them,,, well thats a whole nother issue....
