Am I overfeeding? (PICS)

So I know this site says to feed puffers till they have a "slightly rounded belly", but I just want to confirm exactly what that looks like. I've attached pictures of my two GSP's right after tonight's feeding...is this the right amount, too much, not enough?

LOL, that's a bit more than "slightly". How often are you feeding?

Just once a day. That was just from a small portion of shrimp shared between them. When I feed them clams I can't even let them eat the whole thing, have to take it out after they've eaten 1/4th because they get huge.

I would feed 2 days & then skip 1.

+1 to PP suggestions as they get bigger it will be easier to control the amount that going in and once they get 3-4"+ you can do every other day feedings.
