This guy was sold to me as a ocell. He is a maniac when any food is in the tank no matter what frozen cube it is. He absolutely loves beefheart he will nearly eat a entire cube until he looks like he is going to form stretch marks. Question is what is he???

Your going to kill that fish lol .....Looks like a farmie, if his eyes are always red then prob an occel. It's hard to tell by the pic
when I throw rosies in the tank he will literally swallow 2 then inhale 3 and keep them in his mouth for 30 min or so until he eventually gets them swallowed. I just dumped 60 ghost shrimp in the tank so he should have some fun with that.
I would seriously consider feeding that fish small portions at a time, rather than putting the food in all at once. A fish that will stuff itself like that could inadvertently overeat, hemorrhage, and die. It's been known to happen. About a year ago, a guy at our fish club had a couple of fingerling cichla in a 55 gal. He was going out of town for the weekend, so he dumped some live black worms in the bare bottomed tank, thinking they would stay alive until they were eaten over the weekend. One of the fish stuffed itself until it died. Even after death, the little guy's belly was grossly swollen with the worms.
