Default Pregnant sixline?

I watch my sixline find a place to hide inbetween the rock in my tank. As I watched her, i noticed she was breathing a bit heavy as she "sat" there, so I decided to chase her out of her hiding place to see if she was okay. when i chashed her out, she had a almost spider like web surrounding her with little dot looking things. Afraid oh my fishes health, I quickly made sure the water in my quarentine tank was ready for her. when i went back to find her, I noticed she had done the same thing in a different location. Whats going on?

Maybe she just laid some eggs, no males to fertelize em though. I left her in the DT last night and she's doing just fine this morning

Seems pretty soon for fish already. Did you let the tank cycle at all?
