I've noticed it the past few days that one of my DPs tummies is significantly rounder than the other two, almost like he's eaten a meal and then some. I normally feed them some bloodworm in the morning and night, but missed their morning feedings these past few days that I've been running late to uni. I always assumed that the roundness was from that, but I think it's safe to assume that it's not seeing as I've only been feeding them in the evenings.
Apologies that I don't have the exact water parameters as I tested a good few weeks ago now and I moved them to their new tank this week, but everything was fine and well. It'll be a few more days till I get my new test kit in so I won't have anything new until then, but I brought everything over from their old tank and topped up with conditioned water. My water conditioner is 'Aquarian Tropical Water Conditioner' and I add some easy-life provito and easycarbo for the plants with the weekly water changes; I normally change about 20-30% of the water, because their old tank was slightly smaller at about 28L. Their new tank is 32.
The aquarium has been set up for 8 1/2 months now, cycled for a month or two before I got them, and I don't know but I think Monty has always had a bit of a swollen tummy? When they were still maturing I thought he might've been a female before the male markings showed up, but it's never been anything severe. He still eats fine and poops okay so I don't think it's constipation.
Pictures are far from the best quality, but they show how round his belly is
I noticed as well today that there's a tiny red dot in front of one of his fins, though it might just be a piece of worm or something stuck to him and me worrying for no reason, but better to be safe than sorry!
