Hello! First time Apisto mom here. No idea why he's so bloated all of a sudden. He's still eating. In fact he's acting like he's starving. He eats a few vibra bites each morning. It's a community tank so there's also some tetra pellets and sinking wafers for the Corys. I only ever see him eat the vibra bites. Tank parameters: ammonia 0, nitrite 0, nitrate 5, ph 7, temp 79f. Fairly new tank, about 4 months old. Have had him for 2 months now. He's still acting normal, but he's been bloated like this for a few days now. I fasted the tank for a day and no difference. Not that I expected a miracle overnight, but I'm wondering if I should be treating him for parasites or something else. Everyone else in the tank is fine. There are 5 albino corys, a female apisto agassizii, 3 platys and 9 neon tetras. 36 gallon planted tank.
