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.

You are just jealous of his tiny shorts and cute tank tops.

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.
