Okay so advice taken and the hairy has been home in his tank for 5 days now. I've been looking at tons of images for belly size for when to feed and when not to, and would love some opinions.
This is his belly after I fed him yesterday. he got a 1 inch piece of skinny nightcrawler.

This is his belly today, no food for over 24 hours.

On another forum someone rec'd I treat him for parasites (my LFS said they did but no harm in me doing it) so I added prazipro to the tank today.
But basically does his belly look normal? Would you feed him based on either of those vids?
Thank you again,
TT

That's pretty much how mine looks.
