Hey guys.
Yesterday I went to my LFS to get some discus and while checking out the SW fish I saw a beautiful toby. He seemed nice and fat and healthy and I was going to get him but he had a lump on his stomache that worried me. Is it possible that it was from him eating to much or he inhaled air and that's what caused the lump?

A lump? Tobies do have a ridge on the bottom of their bellies that may be easy to mistake as a defect of somesort.
If that's not it I wouldn't buy him though...
