Hi
Please help me determine if she is pregnant. She had the bite marks for over a month now so i suspect they mated. Judging from the clip, how much longer she will deliver the pups? In addition, she used to hit her body against the bottom and shoot backward like that. Is it normal? Please comment. Thank you

Hard to tell from the video. Have you seen any movement? You should think about putting the male on the other side of you divider too.
 
Difficult to tell but the male has been chewing on her pretty good.
 
I have a 370 G pond with dim at 6'Lx4'Wx2'H next to the tank. Just waiting for weekend to move them. In addition. I'm a little concern about moving her. Is it ok to move her at this stage? or i should just keep her in there until she deliver? assuming i will move her in a bag with water but how ever, she will be lift out of a 10"w opening on top of the tank. I will separate the male by then and will get him a new female. Thank you all for your comments. I will keep you guys update. Also, how much longer till she deliver?
 
Move him out, not her. Stressing the mom might cause an abortion at this point.
 
Yes, leave her in the tank by herself. If she is pregnant, I would say you have another month or so to go. Odd that the male is chewing on her this bad. My male left the female alone while she was pregnant.

And a question. Does the male have a wound around his left spiracle?
