Question

sapphira- female betta
MY female betta is swolen with eggs for  a week.  How can I make the eggs disappear without her mating?

Answer
Eun,

No need to do anything her body will absorb them. I hope you have a heater in there with her. She is a tropical fish and needs her water to be 82 degrees. You do however have a problem. Your Betta appears to have fin rot. You might want to get some medication for her.
