Hi everyone,
I have a approximately 6 inch electric catfish who wasn't getting enough food at first because he was in with a more aggresive eater and they actually got along! I know, shocker! But so I fed him extra when I took the other fish out, and now he's blown up like a literal balloon. Worse than they normally are. I believe he's constipated from too much food possibly and he isn't swimming around much anymore like he used to. Is there anything I can do for him or do I just have to let nature take it's course and hope for the best?
Thanks
 
A photo may help us help you. It could also be bad food or parasites or a digestive clog+bloating (often having to do with too much nitrates etc, insufficient WCs).
