their is nor reason to add stress coat or zyme. what you want to add is prime or another dechlorinator. your fish produce slime coat their is no reason to add.

uh correct me if im wrong but stress coat is a de-chlorinator plus an electrolyte booster but stress zyme isnt needed on an established tank i will agree .

When spawning signs appear, your best bet is to not mess with their environmental variables at all. They are content where they are and in the conditions you provide. your goal should be to continue providing the care you're giving. Provide a place to lay eggs, and let nature take it's course. The natural instinct of species is to procreate and reproduce. Let that happen on it's own - unless you feel like milking and extracting eggs.

Most likely her eggs are getting ready to be laid...that is why she looks fat. I have seen the same thing happening in my geos.

i hope so..i never seen my mono go this cyco before..which i'm suprised bcuz the orino was taken out my tank yesterday and my kels n mono looked stressed..would it help if i just stayed away from my tank for the next couple days? also i noticed my monos colors are kinda faded does that mean anything?..i'm new to this whole pbass spawning thing thats y i ask so many questions..

I cannot tell you for sure about the fading, but they will constantly change colors. And they will be really mean.

I think that's a pure Kelberi.
