This female has been listless and not eating the past 2 days. No bloating, no fin damage or obvious ICK or fungus. She had been bullied and chased alittle last week, but the others seem to leave her alone lately. Suggestions? Thanks

she may be holding eggs

I don't think so. First she's pretty small/young. Second, I don't see anything in the mouth or jaw area. Good thought though.

She doesn't look to be holding in the picture.
Perhaps it's just stress? Do you have a different tank you could move her to?

It could be stress, a couple of the other fish are chasing it out setting up a pecking order. I could move her to a tank at work. There a some yellow labs, and some miscellaneous peacocks. They are quite a bit larger. Shes about 2 inches, they are in the 4-5 inch range. Do you think there would be any conflicts? It's a 69 gallon tank with plenty of holey rock and slate.

You could use a net breeder as a respite from the larger fish.
