Bloated Tailspot Blenny

[Laflew]

Hi there! I have a Tailspot Blenny thats currently displaying a large belly after eating. His poops have been a bit stringy and whitish/green and I was just wanting to know if this is normal for them. He was just added to the tank about 3 weeks ago from my quarantine tank and had no symptoms like this until he was put in the display tank. He's eating omega one veggie pellets, spirulina mysis from hikari, and the occasional algae wafer. The tank is about 7 months old so there is a bit of algae for him to graze on. I'll add some pictures of the chubby little guy. Thanks a lot!

It does seem a bit fatter than normal, but as long as it eats well, and the swelling goes down between feedings, I wouldn't worry. You should feed it smaller amounts, multiple times a day though - more like how they feed in the wild.
