Is it possible for it to be a gravid female?

Could try feeding him/her peeled peas and adding epsom salt just in case. Bloat can be nasty, but I don't even know if snakeheads even get it. The peas would be for constipation.

Hi, I know this is late but did you ever find a solution? I have a snakehead with the exact same problem.
