Does anyone know why Fairy Tail stopped at episode 175 and when will it resume?

I heard that Fairy Tail will be continuing:

1. sometime in November,2013.

2. या maybe in March,2014.

Also I heard from different sources that Fairy Tail stopped because:

1. the ऐनीमे was catching up to the मांगा so they had to take a break from the anime

2. the voice actress for Lucy is in some sort of स्कैंडल या something like that

3. some people think that maybe the ratings drop so the दिखाना was cut and the मांगा continued like what happened to Bleach (which I find very hard to believe)

If आप guys have any other reasons या देखा गया to why it stopped या will be continuing please state so thanks
