Thanks jay! Was content already but i just tried something for kicks... started feeding him feeders stuffed with hikari carni sticks and or spirulina sticks. Did this for a week and he responded by eating 2 to 3 stuffed goldfish at a time, that really filled him up. I think he also got the nutrients that he has long been needing. his stomach, which was originally out of position expanded and is now in the proper place. he is not growing as fast as his other growout mates so im still keeping an eye on him, hopefully there will be no recurrence. Thanks for the support!
