He's still eating normally and pooping right? So long as you're sure he's not constipated and he's not floating upside down at the top you should be okay.

Re: fat figure 8
if he seem fat to you, then cut back on how often you feed him

Re: fat figure 8
How big is the tank? More room with areas of more current = more exercise and more calories expended. No music videos required.
How often do you feed? Mature fish do not require more than alternate-day feeding. Fat fish are not healthy or long-lived fish.
