One of my neon tetras has an unusually large belly. It's been this way for maybe 3 days, I thought maybe he just overate. It's still pretty bloated. He is quite active and motivated by food, but doesn't really appear to be eating much of it.
He seems pretty normal except for the belly. Viewed from above, he looks lumpy, or maybe a little crooked.
What might be wrong with him, and can it be treated?
Water parameters are typical for this tank. The only recent change has been that I feed Hikari Tropical Micro Pellets instead of flakes, which they have really seemed to enjoy. I have noticed more recent "sparring" between pairs of neons, but no idea if that could be related.
