Overweight Betta ???
I have a Betta who is a wee bit obese,... And I'm wondering if it is
really fat, or could it be a tumour of some kind. I don't know the
names of Betta anatomy, but from just behind his small side fins he has
a round gut, like as if he's swallowed a pea. He eats well, but he
likes to lay about like a couch potato, on some rocks that leave him
either just below the waterline, or so that his head is out of the
water, depending on at which end of the rock he lays on, looking like a
Betta equivalent to Emperor Nero lounging about on a royal divan, when
he's not swimming around. I've even taken to calling him "Fat Boy", even
though he's been called "Indigo" ever since I got him many months ago.
What do you folks think? Pax Vobiscum,...~Dean.
