That doesn't look like classic gravid shape. The section that holds eggs is more to the rear of the visceral area and that seems to be more than that. So it could be, but I think there is more going on than just getting ready to lay eggs.
 
That looks like parasite to me. . . or maybe something else. But agreed with the above, gravid looks much different.
 
Yeah, does not look good.
How long have you kept glofish?
I bought 7 glo/danios and lost 4 of them in a few weeks.
I don't think these glowfish are very hardy.
 
I had a Glo Fish of the same species do that. It looked just like yours.When it slowed down and went to the bottom of the tank, I removed it. I still don't know what caused it, but though it might have been swim bladder disease. My other Glo Fish are fine and never showed any signs of this.
 
I have a Glofish tank at work, a Green, Pink, Blue (and formerly a Red) Tetra variety. The Red did well at first but then seemed to hang out down in the corner of the tank and quit eating. It finally just starved to death and I removed it. Not sure if I may have injured it during one of my weekly gravel cleaning/water changes. The other 3 have been doing wonderful though and eat like piranha.
