Clownfish really fat and swims weirdly

I think they will bloat again, so be prepared. Forget about spawning, males do not bloat just to spawn.
 
No I don’t see any yet but the female clownfish keeps going near this rock and she’s getting a bit aggressive with the male clownfish .

If she did lay the male would care for the clutch fanning the eggs and removing the unviable ones. If he does not do his part it would not be a good outcome for him.

Can you gently turn the rock she is guarding to check for eggs?

I truly hope this was the reason for the bloat.

I can’t turn it because it’s a big rock and it supports the whole rock structure and she wouldn’t be able to lay eggs under it .
