Like the title said. Why is this? Is he filling up with air, small gravel? My substrate is mostly sand and some crush coral.
Tsn belly looks full but hasnt eaten yet?

If he swallowed some substrate (which would be highly rare and unusual but not unheard of), you should be able to feel it with your finger in his tummy. I suggest you do it asap. If yes, this thread describes how one of our colleaques from Sweden saved his TSN when it swallowed 70 stones with excellent YouTube vids linked: http://www.planetcatfish.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=37031&hilit=+gravel
The alternatives could be that he has found some food, unexpectedly for you, or he has internal parasites. The latter may be growing in size/number and filling the intestinal cavity, or causing a digestive clog an/or collection of gas. Another alternative is a tumor.
